Yu Yin
I am an associate professor at Sun Yat-sen University mainly working on high-entropy alloys (HEAs) and laser additive manufacturing (LAM). My research interest is the development of advanced aerospace and tooling materials (e.g. HEAs, high-temperature and ultra-hard alloys) using advanced manufacturing technologies (e.g. LAM, plasma arc melting). This involves the composition design, manufacturing, processing, microstructure, and properties characterization of novel materials. I have published over 40 peer-reviewed papers in leading international journals. The total citation number of these papers has increased rapidly to over 1400 times (H-index 21) since they were recently published in 2018. Due to my research work on advanced materials and manufacturing technology, I was invited as the youth editor of the Journal of Materials Science & Technology. I am also the reviewer and guest editor for Frontiers in Materials and Recent Progress in Materials. I have been invited several times to do oral presentations at international conferences, including the keynote speaker at the MatSciCon2023.
