Dr. Quan Wang recognized for his research into smart materials and nanotechnology.

Prof. Quan Wang Receives Fellowship at the Canadian Academy of EngineeringKhalifa University Professor of Mechanical Engineering Dr. Quan Wang was inducted into the Canadian Academy of Engineering on June 4 2015 at a ceremony in Ontario Canada. The Canadian Academy of Engineering is one of three renowned academies in the country among the Royal Society of Canada and the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences. There are about five hundred active fellows in the Canadian Academy of Engineering. Dr. Wang was recognized for his research into smart materials and nanotechnology in addition to his extensive activities with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) as well as his work as an active board member author and editor for several major engineering publications such as the Journal of Sound and Vibration and the journal Carbon for the American Carbon Society. He was also a founding Associate Editor for the ASME Journal of Nanotechnology in Engineering and Medicine.

Dr. Wang has made outstanding contributions into the applications of nano-materials in composites and medical devices. He is also a leading expert in smart materials and structures which are materials that possess one or more properties that can be significantly changed by external stimuli such as stress temperature electric or magnetic fields and their applications in energy harvesting structural health monitoring and repair. To date Dr. Wang has received 4 patents and has published more than 200 research papers in internationally referred journals that are highly cited and has played an active role in smart material and nano-technology research and education. In addition to this fellowship he is also a fellow of AMSE ASCE and the Institute of Physics.

“I’m honored to become a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering ” says Dr. Wang. “It’s wonderful to be recognized among many of Canada’s most accomplished engineers not only for my research achievements and academic pursuits but also for my activities in promoting and assisting academic societies. Such a recognition enhances my ability to contribute to Khalifa University and my research community while encouraging me to continue with groundbreaking research.”

“Dr. Wang’s contributions to mechanical and civil engineering have made him a leader in the field ” says Dr. Tod Laursen President of Khalifa University. “He has advanced the use of nano-technology in engineering and medicine and due to the feasibility novelty and simplicity of some of his applications has been widely acknowledged by his peers industry and by other academic societies and institutions around the world. We are pleased to count him as one of our faculty and look forward to seeing what his future research brings.”
