Welcome to my academic homepage. My name is Siqi Wang, and I am a self-motivated researcher currently pursuing a Ph.D. at the College of Intelligent Robotics and Advanced Manufacturing (CIRAM), Fudan University (2025–present), under the supervision of Prof. Timon Rabczuk. My research focuses on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to solid mechanics. I obtained my B.Eng. in Engineering Mechanics from Hunan University (2018–2022) and my M.Eng. in Aerospace Science and Technology from Xiamen University (2022–2025), where my work centered on impact dynamics and mechanical metamaterials for aerospace applications, supervised by Prof. Baoqiang Zhang and Prof. Huageng Luo at the Centre for Advanced Machine Design and Data Analytics (CAMDDA). In addition, I served as an Assistant Researcher at the Aero Engine Academy of China from 2023 to 2024 and was a Visiting Student at The University of Hong Kong in 2026.

I specialize in solid mechanics and have extensive experience in numerical simulation and vibration testing. My current research focuses on the intersection of AI and solid mechanics. I am always open to academic discussions and potential research collaborations. If you are interested in my research or would like to explore possible collaborations, please feel free to contact me via email (sqwang25@m.fudan.edu.cn) or WeChat (ws11009922).

Bird Strike Resistance Analysis for Engine Fan Blade Filled with Triply Periodic Minimal Surface

Siqi Wang, Chuangyu Jiang, Cunfu Wang, Baoqiang Zhang, Huageng Luo, Wujun Feng

  • We propose using TPMS structures as lightweight fillers in wide-chord hollow fan blades to enhance bird strike resistance. A multi-level framework—spanning material, element, and component levels—demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of this approach, highlighting its strong potential in aero-engine applications.

Improved Bayesian Model Updating Method for Frequency Response Function with Metrics Utilizing NHBFT-PCA

Jinhui Li, Zhenhong Deng, Yong Tang, Siqi Wang, Zhe Yang, Huageng Luo, Wujun Feng, Baoqiang Zhang

  • We develop an improved Bayesian model updating method for stochastic dynamic models using frequency response functions (FRFs). By introducing a novel NHBFT-PCA-based validation metric, our approach enhances both traditional and approximate Bayesian methods. Numerical and experimental results show improved accuracy and efficiency over conventional techniques.
