Über Autor(innen)

Dr Chen obtained his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from The University of Newcastle, Australia. He has broad research and industrial consulting experience relating to manufacturing and digital technologies in interdisciplinary fields. Dr Chen’s original research interest covered multi-phase flow with primary applications in pneumatic conveying industry. During his further employment with BHP Billiton and Bradken Resources, he developed research interests in mineral processing. His current research areas include advanced sensing and IIoT and their coupling to numerical modelling and machine learning.

Dr Anwar P.P. Abdul Majeed obtained his PhD in Rehabilitation Robotics from the Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA). Prior to joining Sunway University, he served as an Associate Professor at the School of Robotics, Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University (XJTLU) and acted as the Programme Director of the newly developed MSc in Advanced Robotics Systems. He served as a Senior Lecturer (Assistant Professor) and the Head of Programme (Bachelor of Manufacturing Engineering Technology (Industrial Automation)) at the Faculty of Manufacturing and Mechatronics Engineering Technology, UMPSA before joining XJTLU. He is also currently serving as an adjunct Associate Professor at UCSI University, Malaysia. Dr Anwar is also a Visiting Research Fellow at EUREKA Robotics Centre, Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK.

Dr Andrew Tan obtained his PhD from The University of Nottingham. He was a manufacturing engineer in Agilent Technologies and Motorola Solutions, where he ensured the smooth development and sustenance of product manufacturing lines. In these positions, he has led extensive manufacturing projects across different teams, time zones, and varying concurrent engineering phases.

Dr Fan Zhang obtained his PhD in Material Perception from TU Delft, The Netherlands, and is currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Robotics at Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University (XJTLU). Prior to joining XJTLU, he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher for Procter Gamble (DE) in Multisensory Perception and Consumer Knowledge research and later as Research Fellow at the University of Birmingham (UK) in Computational Modelling and Cognitive Robotics.

Dr Yuyao Yan is currently an Assistant Professor at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) Entrepreneur College (Taicang). He received his Ph.D. from the University of Liverpool, U.K. His research interests lie in the field of 3D computer vision and pattern recognition.

Dr Yang Luo is an Assistant Professor at the School of Intelligent Manufacturing Ecosystem in Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University (XJTLU). His primary research interest centres on industrial sustainability, with a focus on reducing dependence on fossil-based energy sources through the implementation of intelligent operations and process planning. Dr Luo’s research activities encompass several areas within this field, including real-time energy management for flexible and reactive factories, modeling energy consumption across various levels (plant, process, and product), and energy capture and reuse in manufacturing enterprises. Prior to joining his current position, Dr Luo worked as a postdoctoral research associate (PDRA) at the Research Centre for Carbon Solutions (RCCS) in Heriot-Watt University, UK and Energy Sustainability Consultant at State Grid, China.

Dr Long Huang is an Associate Professor in the School of Intelligent Manufacturing Ecosystems.
