Biography

I am a postdoctoral fellow at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) supported by the PolyU Postdoc Matching Fund Scheme, and work with Prof. Kai Pan. I was a research associate at the School of Science and Enginerring, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen), and worked with Prof. Shunbo Lei. I received the PhD degree from Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), which is a joint PhD program with Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), under the supervision of Prof. Zaiyue Yang. During my doctoral studies, I worked closely with Prof. Shibo Chen. I visited the Control Systems Technology group, Department of Mechanical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), Eindhoven, Netherlands, in 2022, and worked with Prof. Mauro Salazar. I obtained my BEng in Electrical Engineering from Changsha University of Science and Technology under the supervision of Prof. Yuanyuan Wang.

My research interests include electric transportation systems, and resilient power systems, with an emphasis on the mathematical model, solution method of electrified transportation systems.

I have served as a reviewer for the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, IEEE Systems Journal, Expert Systems With Applications, Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications, Optimization and Engineering, and other IEEE conferences.
