Introduction to Dr. Zhang

Zhiliang Zhang received his BSc and MSc degrees in Structural Engineering from Tongji University in 1985 and 1988, respectively, and his PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering from Lappeenranta University of Technology in 1994. Before being appointed as a full Professor of Mechanics and Materials at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in 2003, he worked at SINTEF, the largest independent research organization in Scandinavia, based in Trondheim, Norway, for nine years. He played a central role in elevating the competence of the Fracture Mechanics Group to an international level. He was a visiting scientist at Harvard University from 2000 to 2001, a Changjiang visiting professor at the University of Science and Technology Beijing in 2010, a JSPS fellow at Kyoto University in 2011, and a visiting scholar at the California Institute of Technology from 2017 to 2018. He has supervised and co-supervised more than 60 PhD postdoctoral candidates at NTNU. Professor Zhang founded the NTNU Nanomechanical Lab in 2006. He was elected chairman for organizing the 20th European Conference on Fracture in 2014 by the Council of the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS) and has been an executive committee member of ESIS since 2010. Professor Zhang is an elected member of the Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences and an ESIS Fellow. He has published his work as the corresponding author in top journals, including Advanced Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Advanced Science, Materials Horizons, Nano Letters, Nature Communications, Nanoscale, SMALL, the Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS), Acta Materialia, and the Journal of Mechanics and Physics of Solids (JMPS).

Professor Zhang currently serves as the Editor-in-Chief for Engineering Fracture Mechanics, an international flagship journal for fracture mechanics since 1968.
