Most of the papers are SCI-indexed and can be found from the following links: Publons or Web of Science ResearcherID
Website Google Scholar Website >6000 citations, H-index = 35 Notes for Potential PhD Students and Visiting Scholars: (1) PhD scholarship is rarely available. Among the current PhD students in my group, only one is on scholarship and all others are self-financed. (2) Self-funded Visiting Scholars (including visiting PhD students under CSC scheme) are welcome. However, I have been approached by so many applicants that I have no choice but turn down many of them. (3) If you would like to make an inquiry, please send an email to mwzhou@ntu.edu.sg with your CV. I usually give a reply within a few days. Alternatively, you may call me using my office number or via Wechat (ID: weizhou91169706). Teaching Courses lectured: · Materials Science (1st year common engineering core course) · Manufacturing Processes (2nd year core course) · Materials and Manufacturing Technology (2nd year BEng core course) · Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering (inter-school course) · Materials Engineering (4th year optional course) · Fracture and Fatigue (postgraduate student course) · Advanced Manufacturing Technology (postgraduate student course) · Laser Assisted Manufacturing (postgraduate student course) |
