报告人简介：
Dr. L. Cheng received his BSc degree in Applied Mechanics from Xi'an Jiaotong University in 1984, DEA and Ph.D degrees from the Institut National des Sciences Appliquees de Lyon (INSA-Lyon), France in 1986 and 1989, respectively. He started his academic career in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Laval University, Canada in 1992, rising from an assistant professor to Associate/Full Professor, before joining the Department of Mechanical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University as a Professor in 2000. He became a Chair Professor in 2005 and the Head of Department from 2011 to 2014. He was the Chair/Co-Chair and a scientific committee member (over 30 times), a keynote speaker (over 15 times) and invited speaker (over 50 times) in various international conferences. Dr. Cheng published extensively in his research area, with over 350 publications including book/book chapters and journal/conference papers, receiving over 2600 citations. He was elected a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America for “contribution to vibroacoustic modeling of complex structures”, as well as a fellow of the Acoustical Society of China, IMechE and the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers. Dr. Cheng currently serves as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Acoustical Society of America, Associate Editor of Structural Health Monitoring: an International Journal, and an editorial board member of the International Journal of Applied Mechanics, ACTA ACUSTICA Sinica, Chinese Journal of Acoustics as well as four other international journals.
报告内容：
As one of the founding departments in the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) almost eighty years ago, the Department of Mechanical Engineering (ME) has been actively involved in both fundamental and applied research to push the frontier of knowledge ahead in order to serve Hong Kong, its surrounding region and the word. Nowadays, ME is one of the most research-active departments on the campus and excels in a number of research areas that are germane to Hong Kong and beyond.The research foci of the department are in four major areas of expertise and operated under three Research Centres and a Research Consortium under the University Niche Area scheme. As one of its constituents, the Consortium for Sound and Vibration Research (CSVR) carries out research in a wide spectrum of research topics, ranging from vibration and noise control, structural health monitoring and fluid-structure interactions. This talk will focus on a number of key research topics that are being carried out in CSVR to give the audience an overview of the CSVR and its research activities. Challenges and opportunities related to these on-going research activities will be discussed.
