Professor Chenfeng Li

Speaker's Biography

Professor Chenfeng Li has been working in the fields of computational solid mechanics, computational fluid dynamics, heterogeneous material modelling, and physics-based data mining and visual computing for nearly 20 years. Most of his research work is directly driven by practical problems encountered in energy, material, construction and creative industries. His research has led to the publication of 80 journal papers and 1 industrial guide and the award of 3 UK patents. As a Guest Editor, he has edited 4 special issues on different topics of computational engineering. To date, he has organised and chaired 6 international conferences/workshops and has served as a committee member for 22 international conferences. He is also the Editor of Engineering Computations.

Professor Chenfeng Li will deliver a lecture entitled:

'Data and computation for engineering and creative industries'.

Through a series of case studies, this lecture discusses data and computation for engineering and creative industries. Over the past several decades, engineering computations have revolutionized the design, construction and production practice in almost all engineering sectors, including aerospace, automotive, oil & gas, and manufacturing industries. In the past decade, the simulation technology has also been adopted by the creative industry to deliver unprecedented visual effects for films and TVs, and examples include Avatar, Titanic, Frozen, to name a few. More recently, with the rapid growth in AI and machine learning, data technologies are gaining attention in the engineering community and are widely seen by practitioners as the next step-change technology.
