Personal profile
Dr. Guansong Shan is currently an assistant professor at the Department of Mechatronics and Robotics, School of Advanced Technology, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) from October 2024. He received his bachalor and master degree from Jilin University and Ph.D. degree from University of Exeter (UK) in mechanical engineering. Dr. Shan's research focuses on vibration energy harvesting technologies, piezoelectric/eletromagnetic energy transducers, self-powered systems, and renewable power conversion systems. He has published over 10 peer-reviewed journal and conference papers as first-author. His work has been published in esteemed journals such as Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing and Energy Conversion and Management. He has also collaborated with UK Network Rail and South West Water to design, develop, and test self-powered monitoring transducers.
