Li Shu (mechanical engineer)
Lily Hwei-Li Shu is a mechanical engineer whose research involves the engineering design process, including sustainable design, bioinspiration, design for remanufacturing, and psychological factors in design. Educated in the US, she works in Canada as a professor at the University of Toronto.
Education and career[edit]
Shu studied mechanical engineering at the University of Nevada, Reno, graduating in 1989. She went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for graduate study in mechanical engineering, earning a master's degree in 1992 and completing her Ph.D. in 1996. Her dissertation, Application of a design-for-remanufacture framework to the selection of product life-cycle fastening and joining methods, was supervised by Woodie Flowers.[1]
She is a full professor at the University of Toronto. She has joint appointments in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering,[2] where she directs the Design Effectiveness Laboratory,[3] and in the Department of Psychology, where she directs the Collaborative Specialization in Psychology and Engineering.[4]
Recognition[edit]
Shu was the 2004 recipient of the CIRP F. W. Taylor Medal Award of the International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP),[5] and was elected as a Fellow of the CIRP in 2013.[3] She was elected as an ASME Fellow in 2021.[6]
