Research Description

•The research areas of Professor Li’s group are Micro/Nano Mechanics, Experimental Mechanics, and Mechanics of Aerospace and Engineering Safety, with special focus on:

•Investigating the mechanical behaviors of micro/nano objects owing to their dimension reducing, environmental atmosphere effect and interactions, developing new measurement techniques and instruments to measure the mechanical properties of micro/nano objects/ components or films.

•Advanced experimental methods and technologies in optical techniques, such as Speckle interferometry, Holography interferometry, Digital holography, Moiré interferometry, Phase shifting, Carried wave, Marker and grating methods, Digital speckle/image correlation, interfermetric and synchrony radiation computerized tomography.

•New methods and instruments to defect detection and structure evaluation, 3-D reconstruction and measurement of the engineering structures and devices with the optical and the synchronic radiation beams, nondestructive test techniques and analysis methods, particular in large-scale structures and harsh environment.

•Material property characterization and thermal-mechanical reliability assessment of interconnect structure, microelectronic packaging and micro/nano-electrical-mechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS).
