Biography
Dr Du obtained his BEng and MEng from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China in 1983 and 1986, respectively. He obtained PhD from Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, UK in 1991 and joined Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore after that. He is currently an associate professor in the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, NTU. Dr Du was awarded the prestigious Teach of the Year Award by the university in 1999. He served as Head of Engineering Mechanics Division in the school from 2008 to 2011. His research interests are mainly involved in three areas: 1) MEMS, thin films and microfluidics; 2) smart materials and their applications; and 3) numerical and computational methods for engineering applications. He has obtained over 15 research grants from various research funding agencies in the past, totaling more than S$10 million as PI or Co-PI. He has published over 200 international journal papers, which are highly cited.
