Hao Peng, Ph.D.

Welcome to Hao Peng's website!

Hao Peng is a current postdoctoral researcher at University of California, Merced. Before he joined the current group, he studied at University of Missouri, Columbia and obtained both his M.S. and Ph.D. degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering. Due to his outstanding academic performance, he was awarded the "Missouri Honors Award" in 2012. Hao Peng is sophisticated with modeling of complex structures and materials, as well as fluid flow, phase-change, heat transfer and laser-material interaction. His current research interest focuses on multiphysical simulation of metallic additive manufacturing, acoustic metamaterials and oscillating heat pipes.
