Summary
Yu Liang is a research associate professor and aerodynamicist with eight years of focused experience in aerodynamic configuration design and optimization for commercial transport jets. He has led methods-and-tools teams at COMAC and SUSTech, developing NURBS-based airfoil modifications, aero-optimization algorithms, MDO frameworks, and integration approaches for wing/pylon/nacelle/engine layouts. His work spans conceptual to detailed design—driving supercritical wing and long-range wide-body configuration studies while coordinating CFD evaluation and design philosophy evolution. Combining a PhD in Aircraft Design from Beihang University with hands-on engineering leadership, he blends rigorous computational methods from his computational mathematics background with practical industrial delivery. Notably, he has steered multidisciplinary teams to embed response-surface and genetic-algorithm techniques into production aero-design tools, accelerating concept-to-study cycles.
