معرفی
Yuhe Tian is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at West Virginia University (WVU), holding the Stuart and Karen Goodman Faculty Fellowship. She leads the INnovation-driven Sustainable SYSTems (INSSYST) group, focusing on systems engineering tools for process innovation, energy efficiency, and sustainable systems. Her research integrates mechanistic/hybrid modeling, optimization algorithms, and multi-scale approaches for modular process intensification and decarbonization.
Education: Ph.D., Chemical Engineering, Texas A&M University (2021); B.E., Chemical Engineering, Tsinghua University (2016). She teaches undergraduate and graduate courses including CHE355 (Process Simulation) and CHE593C (Advanced Process Systems Engineering). Her team collaborates with the AIChE RAPID Institute on process intensification education and software development.
Research interests include modular process intensification synthesis, fault-prognostic control, energy systems decarbonization, and machine learning in data-scarce regimes. Key contributions include the SYNOPSIS framework for operable system synthesis and publications in Computers & Chemical Engineering, AIChE Journal, and Chemical Engineering Science. She advises multiple PhD and MS students and has openings for researchers.
Awards: Stuart and Karen Goodman Faculty Fellow. Grants and collaborations involve energy systems, process safety, and AI-driven optimization. Her work bridges theoretical advancements with industrial applications in chemical and energy sectors.
