Biography

Dr.Yuguo Li is Professor and Head of Department of Mechanical Engineering, The University of Hong Kong. He studied at Shanghai Jiaotong University. Tsinghua and KTH in Stockholm, and was a Principle Research Scientist at CSIRO. His main research is on built environment engineering (indoor air quality, city climate, and environment studies of infection). He led the development of 2009 WHO guidelines on natural ventilation. He currently serves as an Associate Editor of Indoor Air, and Vice-president of ISIAQ Academy of Fellows. He received John Rydberg Gold Medal from SCANVAC in 2014, and an Honorary Doctor Degree from Aalborg University, Denmark, 2015

Abstract

A livable habitat is necessary for both people and microorganisms. Many scientists and engineers explore how major environment parameters in such habitat are maintained and changed, and how we might design such habitat for improving the environment and climate of people, and for controlling the transmission of infectious microbes. The transport phenomena at the nano-scale of surface contact, and meso-scale of urban climate are linked.

Prof. Li would report their recent process at the University of Hong Kong in understanding how the climate in cities change and can be predicted, how the urban heat island circulation impact on urban pollution, as well as how the microbes are transmitted on the huge surface network in a large city. For the latter, Prof Li would discuss how the number of contaminated surface growth, as well as how particles are transferred during surface touch. Implication to engineering design will also be explored.
