Biographic Information:
Dr Shao-Yun Fu graduated from the Institute of Metal Research (IMR), Chinese Academy of Sciences with a PhD degree in April 1993. He also pursued his graduate education from September 1986 to July 1989 at IMR, Chinese Academy of Sciences earning his Master degree in Engineering in July 1989. He received his undergraduate education at Jiangxi University (now named Nanchang University) from September 1982 to July 1986 and earned his Bachelor degree in Science in July 1986. Dr Fu is an author of ~ 40 International Journal papers, and over 20 Chinese Journal and International & Chinese Conference papers. He is now preparing a monograph entitled Short-fiber-reinforced polymers. He is currently a Research Fellow at Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Before joining NTU, he worked at the Institute for Polymer Research Dresden, Germany as an Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow and a visiting scientist from January 1995 to July 1997. He also worked for about one and half years at IMR after he graduated from IMR in April 1995. Dr Fu received a number of prizes and awards including the worldwide prestigious Humboldt Research Fellowship. He is working in CAMT, Department of Mechanical & Mechatronic Engineering J07, The University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia.
June 2000-present:
He is currently working on short (eg. glass) fiber reinforced (recycled) polymers or polymer blends, and modeling of mechanical properties of fiber and particulate composites and
composite interface at the University of Sydney.
August 1997-July 2000:
He concentrated on working on short fiber reinforced polymers,
modeling of mechanical properties of fiber and particulate composites and
composite interface at Nanyang Technological University.
February 1997-July 1997:
He was a Visiting Scientist at Institut fuer Polymerforschung Dresden
e.V., Germany and focused on working on short-fiber-reinforced polymers
(SFRPs). Two theoretical papers on SFRP composites were completed for publication.
Also, some experimental results on short-glass/short-carbon-fiber reinforced
polypropylene composites were obtained, which are being to be published
.
January 1995 to January 1997:
In 1994 he was honorably awarded the worldwide prestigious Alexander
von Humboldt (AvH) Research Fellowship. From January to April 1995 he learnt
German Language in Herder Institut (Language Institute) of Leipzig University,
Germany and then did the research work on short fiber reinforced polymer
composites at the Institute for Polymer Research Dresden, Germany under
the financial support of the AvH foundation. Theoretical work was performed
on the strength and its anisotropy of short-fiber-reinforced polymers,
the fiber pull-out energy of misaligned short fiber reinforced composites,
and the stiffness and its anisotropy of misaligned short fiber reinforced
polymer composites. Experimental work was carried out on the mechanical
properties of short-glass-fiber-reinforced unfilled and calcite-particle-filled
ABS composites by taking into account the effects of glass fibers, calcite
particles and interfacial adhesion strengths between particles and matrix
and between fibers and matrix.
May 1993 to December 1994:
He worked at the Institute of Metal Research (IMR), Chinese Academy
of Sciences where he was engaged in studying mechanics of fiber composite
materials, biomimetics of composite materials and developing high performance
and low-cost composites. The biomimetic double-helical reinforcing element
was studied experimentally. Some research work on reformed bamboo and reformed
bamboo/Al composites was carried out and their mechanical properties were
studied. Moreover, influences of artificial pre-stressing on ply stresses
and tensile properties of Vinylon fiber-reinforced aluminium laminates
(VIRALL) were investigated.
September 1989 to April 1993:
He studied at IMR under the supervision of Prof. Ben-Lian Zhou (Academician
of Chinese Academy of Sciences) and Prof. Chi-Wei Lung for his Ph.D. degree.
He learnt 5 courses including Composite Mechanics and Interfaces of Composite
Materials etc. He focused on studying the mechanics of fiber reinforced
composites and also spent a part of time to the study of magnetic materials.
Single fiber pull-out mechanisms and stress transfer during fiber pull-out
were studied in detail with the method of shear-lag analysis. The stress
transfer in aligned fiber composites for the cases of completely bonded
fiber/matrix interface and partially debonded fiber/matrix interface was
investigated theoretically. Also, branched-fiber pull-out mechanisms were
studied experimentally and theoretically. Due to his excellent academic
record and outstanding scientific research work, he received "the President’s
Prize" at IMR in 1993. The title of his Ph.D. dissertation is "Some theoretical
studies on the interface meso-mechanics of fiber-reinforced composites".
He earned his Ph.D. degree in April 1993 .
September 1986 to July 1989:
He pursued his graduate education at IMR following Prof. Ben-Lian Zhou
(Academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences). In the first year he learnt
about 15 courses including English and Interfaces of Materials etc. Afterwards,
he mainly investigated the fabricating process of C/Al composite by use
of ultrasonic technique, and some good results were obtained. The title
of his Master's thesis is "A theoretical model of the effect of thermal
exposure on the tensile strength of C/Al composites and its experimental
certification". He obtained his Master degree in July 1989.
September 1982 to July 1986:
He studied at the Department of Physics, Jiangxi University (now it
is named Nanchang University), Jiangxi Province, China and majored in Metal
Physics. Since he did exceedingly well in all courses, he was awarded "the
best (outstanding) student prize" by Jiangxi University in all the four
years. He learnt about 40 courses including Advanced Mathematics, English,
Theoretical Mechanics, Materials Mechanics, Mechanical Properties of Materials,
Electrodynamics, Optics, Quantum Mechanics, Metallurgy, Heating Treatment
of Metal Materials etc. He earned his Bachelor Degree in July 1986.
