Prof. Huang received his BEng and MSc in Mechanics from Shanghai
Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2002 and 2004, respectively, and
his PhD in Materials Science in 2008 from Delft University of
Technology (TU Delft), The Netherlands. From 2008 to 2010, he
worked as a research engineer at ArcelorMittal (the largest steel
company in the world) in Maizieres-les-Metz, France. His research
work in ArcelorMittal focused on the development of new advanced
steels for lightweight automotive applications. Prof. Huang joined
University of Hong Kong in 2010 as an Assistant Professor, and was
promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2016 and full
Professor in 2019. Prof. Huang’s research interests focus on two
areas: (1) fundamentals of microstructure-property relationship
and phase transformation of advanced steels and alloys, and (2)
development of lightweight materials for automotive applications.
Both experimental and modelling works are involved in his
research. Being the PI, Prof. Huang secured funding from
Collaborative Research Fund (UGC, HK),
Research Impact Fund (UGC, HK),
National Key R&D Program
(國家重點研發計劃, mainland China), General Research Fund (UGC, HK), Innovation and
Technology Fund (HK), National Natural Science Foundation of China
(mainland China),
and industries from Europe and China (e.g. ArcelorMittal
France, General Motors, Ansteel, Baosteel etc).
Prof. Huang has published
100+ SCI journal papers on top
international journals in the field such as Science, Acta
Materialia, Scripta Materialia, JMPS and IJP etc.
