Dr Wai Ming Cheung

Assistant Professor

Department: Mechanical and Construction Engineering

EE Waimingcheung Staffprofile 255 He was a Post Doctoral Research Officer at the University of Bath, UK where he conducted research on through-life costing in designing defence electronic systems. Previously he was a researcher at the University of Durham focused on research and applications of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) techniques to capture and reuse of design and manufacturing knowledge to improve the product development process. He obtained his PhD degree in engineering from the University of Durham. Prior to this, he studied master and bachelor degrees in manufacturing and mechanical engineering at Loughborough and Strathclyde.

Research Themes and Scholarly Interests

To challenge the development of greener and cleaner approach in terms of global product development. His research addresses new advances in “Clean and Sustainable Technology” and reviews its implications in the sustainable industry. His research focuses on various implementation pathways (such as new materials, design approaches, process, production systems, life cycle engineering approaches, etc.) to produce products with minimum material wastages, low carbon footprint, low cost and less energy requirement.
