Feng GUO got his Ph.D. from the City University of Hong Kong in Nov. 2003. He is now employed as a full-time professor in Qingdao University of Technology (formerly as Qingdao Technological University). His main work is concentrated on fundamental research and university education in tribology. He has published more than 50 English papers in peer-reviewed international journals. He owns 5 invention patents in the lubrication measurement systems. As a principal investigator, he has undertaken research projects funded by NSFC (Natural Science Foundation of China), the Ministry of Education of China, Qingdao Municipal Science and Technology Commission, and some industrial partners. He has successfully supervised nearly 20 research students, and they have won different academic awards due to excellent performance in Ph.D./Master degree studies.
