Brief Biography

Zhu-ping Huang is currently Professor of Solid Mechanics at Peking University. He completed his both undergraduate and post-graduate studies in Peking University in 1963 and 1966, respectively. During the culture revolution, he worked in the An Shan Iron & Steel Company. He re-joined Peking University in 1974, and became a professor. He was a visiting scholar at the University of British Columbia, Canada, in 1985 - 1986, and at UMIST, UK, in 1993 under the support of the Royal Society. His research interests include plasticity, damage of ductile materials under dynamic loading, elasto-plastic constitutive theories at finite deformation, thermo-viscoelastic constitutive theories at finite deformation, strengthening and toughening mechanisms of composite materials, and micromechanics of heterogeneous media. He has published more than 100 scientific papers, and a book “Fundamentals of Continuum Mechanics” (in Chinese). In addition, he is also the coauthor of another book and editor of several sets of conference proceedings in the field of plasticity; and serves Acta Mechanica Sinica and Applied Mathematics & Mechanics as Editorial Board member.
