Author Information

He previously worked at Cranfield University as a key research officer and delivered world leading research in ultra precision diamond turning and grinding of freeform optics. From 2007 to 2012 he was a lecturer at Heriot-Watt University. From 2012 to 2013 he was a Reader in ultra precision manufacturing at the University of Huddersfield where he lead an Advanced Machining Research Group within the EPSRC Centre for Innovative Manufacturing in Advanced Metrology. He and his research group established an international reputation in ultra precision machining, micromachining and nanomanufacturing research, as evidenced by more than 100 papers in peer-reviewed highly ranked journals and international conferences. He was honored at the Scottish Crucible Awards for Research by Royal Society of Edinburgh in 2010. He won the Institution of Mechanical Engineers 2015 Ludwig Mond Prize for his paper on FIB micro and nano fabrication. Yi Qin is a Professor, Chair of Manufacturing Technology and Systems, and Director of the Centre for Precision-Manufacturing at The University of Strathclyde, UK. Professor Qin’s research interests include materials forming, precision/micro-manufacturing and manufacturing system technology. His main contributions to knowledge to-date include numerical modelling and analysis methods for materials and manufacturing, new material synthesis and manufacturing processes, machine, tool and product designs as well as new manufacturing system concepts. As one of the leading experts in the field, Professor Qin has led a series of research and development projects, including several large-scale R&D projects in micro-manufacturing involving many industrial companies. To date, he has published over 250 technical papers in the journals and international conferences, given keynote speeches/plenary addresses at more than 30 international conferences and workshops worldwide, a member of the scientific committee for more than 50 international conferences, including the chair of the international conferences on new forming technology and manufacturing research.
