Trends in Aerospace Engineering

Dr. Liang received his B.Eng. (1987) and M.Sc. (1990) in Solid Rocket Motor Design and Ph.D. (2000) in Aerospace Propulsion Theory and Engineering from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (BUAA), respectively. He was promoted to associate professor in 1995 and to full professor in 2002. His research interests cover a wide spectrum of topical areas focusing on combustion, flow, heat transfer, and design for solid and liquid rocket propulsion, and tank pressurization system dynamics for launch vehicles. He supervises domestic and foreign M.S. and Ph.D. students in the field of rocket propulsion. He is the author or co-author of more than 100 technical papers and was the recipient of several teaching and research awards from government organizations. 

Dr. Wu received his B.Eng. (2011) and Ph.D. (2016) in Aerospace Engineering from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Beihang University, respectively. His research interests include computational fluid dynamics (CFD), aircraft/engine environmental adaptation, aerodynamics, flight dynamics and aeroelastics, multi-phase flows, aviation meteorology, parachute fluid structure interaction simulation, helicopter aerodynamics and flight dynamics, and wind turbine aerodynamics. He is currently a professor of College of Energy and Power Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China.  He has won the prizes including the National High Level Young Talent, Top Young Talent Plan of Beihang University, etc. He is the author or co-author of more than 50 SCI article papers.
