Associate Professor

Graduated from the National University of Colombia (School of Physics) in 2003 (2006) with a bachelor's (master's) degree; in 2010, received a PhD in computational physics from the National University of Colombia. Then he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Queensland, Australia. He has been a senior researcher and lecturer in applied mathematics at the University of Queensland from 2015 to 2017. In 2016, he was awarded the Advance Queensland Fellowship by the Queensland Government of Australia, the only fellowship granted in the field of Civil and Environmental Engineering for that year. In 2017, he joined the University of Liverpool as a Senior Lecturer and as an Honorary Associate Professor at the University of Queensland. Starting in early 2019, he joined Westlake as an Associate Professor in the area of Environmental and Resources Engineering.

Ms Tingting TANG

I am an executive assistant in M3 Lab. In 2019, I graduated from Henan Normal University. My major is English translation. After that I had a further study of MTI in Beijing International Studies University and got master degree. In 2023, I joined Westlake University.

Dr. Tilsa Aryeni

I am a postdoctoral researcher in Professor Galindo-Torres's group. I am currently working on microscale fluid dynamics in particular studying the multiphase and multicomponent flows of some fluid phenomena using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). I received my Ph.D. in mathematics from University of Wyoming in December 2022. My Ph.D research is on the application of generalized finite element method to groundwater modeling. Bachelor degree is obtained in my home country Indonesia.

Dr Tingchang YIN

YIN received his Bachelor's and Master's degree both from the Guangxi University, PR China. He used to study rock mass blockiness, rock mass quality classification, homogeneous structural domain, and so on. Now, his research interest includes the Discrete Fracture Network (DFN), percolation theory, flow and transport in DFN, etc. Besides, as a crazy fan of NBA, he likes playing basketball pretty much.

Mr Yifeng ZHAO

I received my B.S. from Beijing University of Technology, China. Currently I am pursing my Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering at Westlake University. My general research interest is the AI application in the Geomechanics field. During my free time I enjoy live music, cooking, coding and travelling.

Ms Hangtong LI

I received my B.S. in Chemistry from University of Liverpool and my M.S. from University College London with a major in Materials for Energy and Environment. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Environmental Science and Engineering in Prof. Sergio Andres Galindo Torres' group. My research focuses on water-solid interactions at the nanoscale through Molecular Dynamics (MD) Simulations and fabrication of the nanoscale functional materials (eg. Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs)). Besides, I like photography and travel.

Mr Ling QIU

QIU received his Master's degree from University of Sheffield in Environmental and Energy Engineering and Bachelor's degree from University of Nottingham in Environmental Engineering. His current research interest is the development of a model for floating offshore wind turbines, under the supervision of Prof. Sergio Andres Galindo Torres. Qiu enjoys music and scuba diving in his free time.

Ms Zaohui ZHANG

I am a PhD student in Dr. Sergio's group. I focus on the properties of granular-fluid system and it's engineering applications. I received my B.S. in the University of South China with the major of Mineral Resources Engineering, and M.S. in the Wuhan University of Technology (with a joint program in the Wuhan Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, majoring in Marine Geotechnical Engineering). After that, I engaged in the research and testing of materials, as well as the project management and consulting (in the Institute of Advanced Engineering Technology, Wuhan University of Technology, Zhongshan City).

Mr Beichen JI

I received my B.S in Beijing university of chemical technology and my M.S. from Paris science and letter. Currently, I am pursuing my phd in Environmental science and engineering in prof. Sergio’s group. My research interest focus on modeling of multi-phase flow.

Mr Xuwen CHEN

I received my B.S. in Water Resources and Hydropower Engineering from Hohai University in 2021. Currently I am pursing my Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering at Westlake University. Now, my research interest focus on numerical modeling and visualization based on CFD-LBM method with CUDA-powered GPU programming.

Mr Jiangjiang Wang

Jiangjiang Wang received his Master’s degree with distinction from the University of Liverpool. Currently, he is a PhD student of Cohort 2023 supervised by Prof. Sergio Andres Galindo-Torres. Jiangjiang pays attention to the reaction flow in porous media in the fields of energy, environment and geo-physical-chemistry, including the dissolution and precipitation caused by the reaction and the transportation of reaction solutes. He is developing a massively parallel program based on Linux system and CPP with CUDA to realize the modeling and mechanism exploration of this scientific problem.
