Ying Sun (mechanical engineer)
Ying Sun is a Chinese-American mechanical engineer whose research interests include interface and colloid science, thermal fluids, and multiphase flow.[1] She is Herman Schneider Professor of Mechanical Engineering and head of the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at the University of Cincinnati.[2]
Education and career[edit]
Sun graduated from Tsinghua University in 1998 with a bachelor's degree in thermal engineering. She went to the University of Iowa for graduate study in mechanical engineering, earning a master's degree in 2001 and completing her Ph.D. in 2006.[3]
She began her academic career as an assistant professor at Binghamton University;[2] Zhiting Tian, a master's student at Binghamton at that time, has named her as a mentor.[4] She moved to Drexel University in 2009, where she became Hess Family Endowed Chair Professor.[2] In 2019 she began a term as a program director at the National Science Foundation, in the Thermal Transport Processes Program.[2][5] She moved to her current position at the University of Cincinnati in 2022.[2]
Recognition[edit]
Sun was elected as an ASME Fellow in 2020.[1][6]
