Short Biography

Dr Tu obtained his PhD degree from Huazhong University of Science & Technology in 2009. Thereafter, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in State Key Laboratory of Advanced Technology for Materials Synthesis and Processing in Wuhan University of Technology and began his research in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC). He has become a Full Professor in New Energy in September 2016. In 2017, Dr Tu returned to Huazhong University of Science & Technology as a group leader in PEMFC. His research now is very much inclined to PEMFC designed for unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) applications.  Dr. Tu has published more than 90 refereed journal papers. These papers registered his great contribution in water and heat management in PEMFC, which provide guidelines for the design of PEMFC systems. He  is now an expert in Military Science and Technology Commission for fuel cell R&D, and also the adviser of fuel cell for GREE ELECTRIC APPLIANCES,INC.OF ZHUHAI.
