Research summary
AI-generated

Jiqiang Wu's research focuses on the mechanical engineering of bearings and coatings used in demanding environments such as aero-engines, including how these components wear, fail, and behave under lubrication and high temperature or stress conditions. Work covers topics like protective surface coatings (e.g., diamond-like carbon and nitride treatments), lubrication film behavior, and fatigue/failure analysis of bearing materials. Note that some publications under this name relate to plant genomics, which appears to be a distinct or unrelated research thread, possibly involving a different individual sharing the same name.
