Kim Meow Liew received his BSCE from Michigan Tech (1985), MEng (1988), and Ph.D. (1991) from the National University of Singapore. He is an elected Member of Academia Europaea and Fellow of Hong Kong Academy of Engineering Sciences. He is currently the Dean of Graduate Studies and Yeung Kin Man Chair Professor of Sustainable Engineering. He was formerly Tenured Full Professor, Founding Director of Nanyang Centre for Supercomputing and Visualisation, and Centre for Advanced Numerical Engineering Simulations at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He has published over 800 papers in international journals with a total of over 45,000 citations, and H index 105 in Google Scholar. He is listed by: (1) the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) as Highly Cited Researcher in Engineering (since 2001), and (2) the Clarivate Analytics as the 2018 Highly Cited Researcher in Engineering, and 2019, 2020 and 2021 Highly Cited Researcher in Cross-Field Research. Wei-Ming Ji received his Ph.D. in 2020 from City University of Hong Kong. He is currently a research fellow in Nanyang Technological University. His research interests focus on the mechanical properties of nanomaterials including carbon-based nanomaterials and high entropy alloys, and explore their potential applications using multiscale techniques including density functional theory, molecular dynamics and coarse-grained modeling. His research findings shed light to the application of carbon nanothreads as mechanical reinforcement for polymer composites.
