Enqiang Lin

Enqiang Lin has a diverse work experience in the field of research and engineering. Enqiang is currently working as a Senior Process Engineer at VulcanForms Inc. since June 2021. Prior to that, they worked at Northeastern University from 2016 to 2021, where they held various roles such as Research Assistant Professor, Associate Research Scientist, and Postdoctoral Research Associate. During their time at Northeastern University, they managed multiple projects related to model development for cold spray additive manufacturing process and applied finite element techniques for analysis and prediction of properties of cold-sprayed systems. Enqiang also conducted research on heat transfer and stress generation in cold spray for efficient thermal solution design.

Before joining Northeastern University, Enqiang Lin worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Virginia Tech from 2015 to 2016. At Virginia Tech, they designed a multiscale simulation framework for The Coca-Cola Company to study the interaction of flavor compounds and polymeric lining films in canned food. Enqiang also analyzed the diffusivity, solubility, and binding affinity of flavor compounds in modeled polymeric films to identify flavor distortion mechanisms.

Enqiang Lin also gained research experience as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Rutgers University from 2014 to 2014, where they led a project team in developing atomistic simulation methods for evaluating physical and mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures and studying moisture effects on adhesion properties of asphalt concrete. Additionally, they worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Arizona State University from 2012 to 2014, where they contributed to the development of a novel volume-compensated particle method (VCPM) for meshless modeling of solid materials.

Enqiang Lin's educational background includes a Graduate Research Assistant position at Tsinghua University from 2008 to 2012. During this time, they worked on multiple projects related to material deformation modeling under extreme conditions and designed a slide metal system for Mitsubishi Ltd using atomistic simulation methods. Enqiang also conducted research on the dynamic failure of inhomogeneous metal materials under shock load and optimized microstructural design for maximum energy absorption.

Enqiang Lin's work experience also includes a Graduate Research Assistant role at Kunming University of Science and Technology from 2005 to 2007. During this time, they developed a weakly-coupled staggered scheme for modeling fluid-structure interactions.

Overall, Enqiang Lin's work experience showcases their expertise in research and engineering, with a focus on modeling and analysis of various materials and processes.

Enqiang Lin obtained their Bachelor of Engineering (BE) degree in Engineering Mechanics from Kunming University of Science and Technology between the years 2001 and 2005. Enqiang pursued further studies and completed a Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in Engineering Mechanics from the same university from 2005 to 2007. Enqiang then went on to complete their Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Solid Mechanics from Tsinghua University between 2008 and 2012.
