Biography

Yi's research focuses on the deformation mechanism and mechanical behavior of advanced materials for aerospace, automotive, marine and biomedical applications. Her research aims to understand the correlation between the microstructures and mechanical properties of advanced materials to develop materials with better performance in engineering applications and to optimize process parameters for high-value manufacturing. She has undertaken many research projects, which were sponsored by the US Army Research Office, US Department of Energy, EPSRC, Royal Society, British Academy and ERC. She collaborates widely with colleagues from different international institutions. Her group works on developing high performance ultrafine-grained materials for applications from cryogenic to high temperature, which has led to more than 180 peer-reviewed journal paper publications, with 5400 citations and a hi-index of 43 (Google Scholar).

Yi is a Fellow of Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IMMM) and a member of EPSRC Peer Review College...
