Summary
Liang Zhang is a postdoctoral researcher based in Bergen with nine years of experience bridging numeric simulation, programming, and semantic modeling. He completed a PhD in Engineering at NTNU after training in naval architecture and engineering mechanics at Dalian University of Technology, bringing domain depth in marine and computational mechanics. Liang’s background includes industry work as a data assistant at China State Shipbuilding Corporation, where practical data workflows informed his research-oriented approach. Now at NORCE, he focuses on semantic modeling and numerical methods that translate complex physical systems into reusable computational models. Colleagues describe him as a practitioner who moves smoothly between code, simulation, and theory, favoring solutions that are both reproducible and pragmatic. He combines academic rigor with hands-on engineering experience to tackle applied research problems that have clear industrial relevance.
