Research summary
AI-generated

This record appears to combine work from multiple researchers sharing the name Jin Li, with a dominant thread in materials engineering focused on magnesium and aluminum alloys, particularly how small additions of rare-earth elements (like Nd, Er, Sn) affect the strength, ductility, and microstructure of magnesium alloys. Other publications touch on protective coatings, rock/mining engineering, water treatment, and unrelated fields (chemistry, astrophysics, medicine), suggesting the name is not uniquely tied to one research group. Prospective students should verify which specific research group and institution this profile corresponds to before drawing conclusions.

Publication output has remained fairly steady to slightly growing over the last decade, with year-to-year fluctuations but a generally consistent volume of 15-27 papers per year.
