Yun Jing Research Group
Starting from Jan. 1st., 2020, I will be starting my new position at the graduate program of acoustics, Penn State University. This website, therefore, will not be maintained anymore.
I received the Bachelor of Science degree in Acoustics from the Department of Electronic Engineering in Nanjing University (China) in 2006. I completed my Ph.D. in Architectural Acoustics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute under the supervision of Dr. Ning Xiang in 08/2009. From 09/2009-08/2011, I was a research fellow in the Focused Ultrasound Lab, Harvard Medical School (Brigham and Women’s Hospital), working on nonlinear acoustics and transcranial beam focusing. I have been an assistant professor at Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, NC State University, since Fall 2011. I was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2017.
Starting September 2013, I am also an adjunct professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, which is a joint program between NCSU and UNC Chapel Hill. I have done consulting work for several companies on acoustic modeling and noise control.
My primary research interests are:
- Biomedical Ultrasound: ultrasound imaging and therapy
- Acoustic Metamaterials
- Noise Control
- Nonlinear Acoustics
- Computational Acoustics
- Architectural Acoustics
