معرفی
Dr Ruizhi Zhang is a Research Associate at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London. She specializes in structural engineering with a focus on metallic 3D printed structural members and resilience of steel framed structures. Her work is supported by the EPSRC-funded RESIST project. She holds a PhD from Imperial College London (2018-2022) under Prof. Leroy Gardner.
- Education: PhD in Structural Engineering (Imperial College London, 2018–2022)
Her research interests span additive manufacturing processes (e.g., WAAM, laser deposition), material characterization of metals, and structural optimization. She has contributed to understanding the mechanical behavior of 3D-printed stainless steel components and the resilience of infrastructure systems. Recent studies include analyzing non-structural elements in concrete girders and optimizing corrugated cylindrical shells for AM.
Zhang has peer-reviewed submissions for journals like Thin-Walled Structures and delivered guest lectures at Tongji and Chongqing Universities. She has co-supervised multiple student projects but no named advisees are listed here.
