This researcher works on coal mining and dust control engineering, focusing on how surfactants, ionic liquids, and other chemical agents affect coal wettability and dust suppression, often using molecular dynamics simulations alongside laboratory experiments. The work also touches on related areas like spray/atomization systems, particle and fluid dynamics, and material development for industrial applications such as cryogenic materials and pyrolysis. Note that the publication list includes some titles seemingly unrelated to this core theme (e.g., excavator route planning, face recognition, EV charging stations), which may reflect co-authorship, name overlap with another researcher, or interdisciplinary side projects.
Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from about 1-2 papers per year in 2017-2018 to a peak of 9 in 2022, with a sustained higher rate of roughly 4-7 papers per year through 2025.
