Biography

Dr Jun Wu joined the University of Birmingham as an Assistant Professor in Future Flight Dynamics and Control in Mar 2026. Before joining the University of Birmingham, he gained his PhD degree in structural dynamics from ISVR, University of Southampton in 2020; he subsequently undertook postdoctoral research at the Department of Aerospace Engineering, University of Bristol (2020-2022) and also at the University of Oxford (2022-2025). He has a broad range of research interests with a focus on aerospace dynamics and control, combining theoretical study and numerical simulation with experimental validation. The aerospace topics he's worked on include aeroelastic instability of propeller-driven aircrafts (funded by EPSRC project MENtOR), resonance control of rotorcraft blades (funded by H2020 project SABRE) and FishBAC morphing of airfoils (funded by EPSRC AdAPTS project), etc.
