معرفی
Hui Meng is the UB Distinguished Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University at Buffalo (SUNY Buffalo). His work bridges biomedical engineering, fluid dynamics, and vascular biomechanics. He leads the Hemodynamics Lab and Laser Flow Diagnostics Lab, focusing on cerebral aneurysm mechanics, flow diversion devices, and advanced diagnostic techniques. Meng earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Houston (1994), preceded by MS and BS in Optical Engineering from Zhejiang University (1987, 1984).
His research integrates computational fluid dynamics (CFD), experimental particle diagnostics, and biomarker discovery to address clinical challenges in vascular health. Key areas include:
- Rupture risk prediction for intracranial aneurysms using hemodynamic models
- Biomarker development from circulating neutrophil transcriptomes
- Optimization of endovascular treatments like flow diverters and coils
- Advanced laser diagnostics for turbulence and multiphase flows
Notable achievements include the 2018 UB Distinguished Professorship, ASME Fellowship, and SUNY Chancellor’s Award. His >200 publications span biomarker discovery (e.g., neutrophil transcriptomics), device design (flow diverter modeling), and fundamental fluid dynamics (particle clustering in turbulence). He collaborates with clinical partners to translate computational models into clinical decision tools like the Rupture Resemblance Score.
Meng’s labs develop innovative methods like fast virtual stenting algorithms and high-resolution CFD validation frameworks. His work appears in journals like Journal of Biomechanics and Physics of Fluids, and he holds patents related to vascular case databases and diagnostic systems.
