Yulin Jiang is currently a Ph.D. Candidate in Mechanical Engineering at the School of Mechanical Engineering and Automation, Northeastern University (China), under the supervision of Prof. Chaofeng Li. From January to December 2026, he is a visiting Ph.D. student at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Politecnico di Torino, Italy.

His main research direction is the study on vibration mechanisms of combined connection rotors, considering interface connection characteristics under thermal environments. Specifically, his work investigates the vibration characteristics, damping mechanisms, and damage evolution of rotor systems under extreme conditions in aerospace applications, with special emphasis on nonlinear friction effects at connection interfaces. His research involves advanced finite element modeling and numerical implementation, aiming at high-fidelity dynamic analysis of complex structures such as disk–shaft systems. He has also contributed to the development of improved Iwan friction models to better capture interface nonlinearities. Currently, his work explores the dynamic modeling of bolted rotor systems under non-uniform temperature fields, integrating thermal effects with nonlinear interface mechanics to enhance prediction accuracy and structural reliability.
