Biography
Dr Jiang received the Bsc and Msc degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (China), and the PhD degree from University of Cambridge (U.K.). He has been a Research Associate at the Control Group, University of Cambridge before joining the Mechanical Engineering department, University of Bristol (U.K.), as a lecturer.
Research Interest
Dr Jiang’s research focuses on both the theory and application of ‘dynamics and control'. By replacing the traditional spring-damper suspension system with a general mechanism, the performance of mechanical systems (e.g. noise and vibration reduction, stability improvement) can be improved via passive or (semi-) active controllers. For example, using advanced passive control method, the suspension design problem can be divided into two sub-problems: Identify a suitable positive-real controller transfer function (immittance) to achieve the desired suspension performance; Design of a physical network mechanism either mechanically or electrically to synthesis such transfer function.
