ACADEMIC PROJECT
Materials Science, Master Project (CMU) Oct 2014-March 2015
Simulation of diffusion in Copper by using Matlab
•! Reviewed papers about the diffusion process; Used Lagrange interpolation method to solve moving boundary problem
•! Developed basic Matlab coding by reading online textbooks
•! Got graphs showing moving boundary of diffusion. Compared with results from experiments, they match well
Materials Science, Thesis Project (HNU) Jan2014-June 2014
Research on upsetting extrusion molding process of Aluminum matrix composites piston
•! Used closed die forging method to forge spray deposition gradient composition aluminum; gained aluminum matrix
pistons with good shapes
•! Sampled on pistons; observed microstructures of materials; measured hardness, density, and friction performance
•! Compared with pistons that did not go through densification, pistons we got had higher density and less porosity, which
means better mechanical behavior
Materials Science, SIT Project (HNU) April 2012
NdFeB permanent magnet material surface anti-corrosion methods
•! Conducted experiments of electroplating NdFeB sample including the solution preparation and electroplating
•! Proceeded film thickness measurement and tested anti-corrosion properties of coating (such as salt spray test)
EXPERIENCE
Intern in Chinalco Luoyang Copper Co., Ltd (CHINALCO) July-August 2013
•! Participated in copper plate rolling process design and analysis
•! Assisted to conduct defect analysis of plate and strip rolling and tube rod extrusion
Intern in CITIC Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (CITIC HIC)/YTO Group Corporation (YTO) July 2012
•! Visited plant areas of YTO and CITIC HIC, familiarized with safety specifications, workshop layout, learned the
technological process such as copper bar and copper pipe extrusion process and the aluminum magnesium strip
smelting, casting rolling process
