Introduction
Biographical Information
Prof. Zhuang got his bachelor's degree and doctoral degree in Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2002 and 2008, respectively. In 2012, he started the postdoctoral research in IUL, TU Dortmund, and worked on the research topic of damage modelling. At present, he works as the deputy director of the Institute of Forming Technology & Equipment. From 2016, he has been the member of advisory board of the International Cold Forging Group (ICFG). Till now, he has published more than 40 papers as well as two translation books. In addition, he has contributed to formulating and revising more than 10 standards in national and mechanical industries.
