Biography
Ho-Sung’s research covers a relatively wide range of research topics as appeared in over 100 publications for the fields including complex assessment, fracture mechanics (http://bookboon.com/en/mechanics-of-solids-and-fracture-ebook), and manufacturing and properties of composite materials. He was a director of research and development for Aceboard Building Products Pty Ltd in 2015, and had been nominated as expert of international standing by the Australian Research Council (ARC) College of Experts and thus has contributed to assessments on ARC research proposals. He has been invited to international conferences in recognition of major contributions in the area of research. His research has led his PhD students to be awarded a Faculty of Engineering and Environment Post graduate Research prize in Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering in 2004 and 2016. He has been regularly a session chairman in various international conferences. He was invited to IVW (Institute of Composite Materials), Kaiserslautern University of Technology, Germany, 2003 under auspices of DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Auatauschdienst) German Academic Exchange Service fellowship, and was also invited in 2015 as a visiting Professor to the University of Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerela, India. He has been also invited to review numerous submitted research papers for international journals and international conferences, and PhD theses. He has been a member of various committees of international conferences.
