Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Metallurgy
  • Electrical engineering

Zhi-Wei Shan focuses on Composite material, Plasticity, Nanotechnology, Deformation and Crystallography. In most of his Composite material studies, his work intersects topics such as Nanowire. His Plasticity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nanostructure, Hardening, Crystal twinning, Transmission electron microscopy and Nanomaterials.

His Nanotechnology study incorporates themes from Zinc, Stress, Volumetric flow rate and Semiconductor. In his research, Spherical shell, Shear strength, Shell and Forensic engineering is intimately related to Stress–strain curve, which falls under the overarching field of Deformation. His studies examine the connections between Spherical shell and genetics, as well as such issues in Nanocrystalline material, with regards to Grain size.

His most cited work include:

  • Grain boundary-mediated plasticity in nanocrystalline nickel. (673 citations)
  • Mechanical annealing and source-limited deformation in submicrometre-diameter Ni crystals (661 citations)
  • Nano-sized twins induce high rate sensitivity of flow stress in pure copper (516 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Composite material, Plasticity, Transmission electron microscopy, Nanotechnology and Metallurgy. His study looks at the relationship between Composite material and topics such as Amorphous solid, which overlap with Silicon. Zhi-Wei Shan studied Plasticity and Deformation mechanism that intersect with Deformation.

His Transmission electron microscopy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Crystallography, Crystal twinning, Fracture, Optoelectronics and Amorphous metal. His studies deal with areas such as Indentation, Oxide, Stress, Stress–strain curve and Shell as well as Deformation. His research in Dislocation intersects with topics in Nanoindentation, Forensic engineering and Flow stress.
