Liao Haitao is an Associate Professor in Engineering mechanics, at Institute of Advanced Structure Technology, Beijing Institute of Technology.
He completed his Ph.D. degree at Beihang University. He has overcome the difficulties in non-smooth, strong nonlinearity, high dimensionality, uncertainty, etc., and established the simple space optimization design method of nonlinear dynamics in time and frequency domains for periodic and proposed-periodic motion. He proposed the stability analysis of proposed-periodic motion and periodic solutions of nonlinear systems with fractional order/time lag, and developed a nonlinear constrained optimization continuous extension method. By exploring bifurcation tracking methods for periodic motion destabilization boundaries, he enriched the theoretical methods for optimal design of structural dynamics. He also developed sensitivity analysis methods for chaotic systems and reliability analysis methods for periodic motion of nonlinear systems containing mixed probabilistic and interval uncertainties. The corresponding research results have been published in Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, Communication in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, Nonlinear Dynamics, Journal of Sound and Vibration and other authoritative journals in this field.
Since 2005, Liao Haitao has been engaged in scientific research on the strength and vibration of key components of aero-engine. His main research directions are multi-phase and multi-scale topology optimization design of composite structures and nonlinear dynamics optimization design methods, by focusing on the important scientific research needs of structural dynamics and the forefront of the discipline, and carrying out research on structural multi-phase and multi-scale topology optimization design methods, simple space optimization design method of nonlinear dynamics for periodic and proposed-periodic motion , nonlinear dynamics analysis methods (stability, sensitivity, reliability, etc.), metal blade disk/experimental study of structural dynamics of layup composite blades.
He proposed a sparse sample machine learning model without regular terms using the principle of topology optimization penalty, established a sparse sample machine learning prediction method to solve large-scale sparse optimization problems without imposing sparsity constraints, converged and penalized the unknown optimization variables to a sparse solution so as to achieve the purpose of feature selection under the condition of sparse samples. To convert the traditional two-layer cyclic optimization problem of reliability topology optimization into a single-layer optimization problem and realize the parallelization of reliability and robustness design, he proposed a data-driven uncertainty design method to merge the advantages of reliability and robustness design and established a sparse sample-driven uncertain design method for stiffness/strength topology optimization of multi-material structures.
