We seek to provide a balance between theory, computation and real-world applications through our synergistic research that includes both fundamentals and applications. At the fundamental level, we focus on the development of novel and advanced mathematical, computing, and artificial intelligence technologies. At the application level, we concentrate our efforts on process, energy, and environmental systems engineering. Particular research interests lie in (1) decarbonization, carbon-neutrality, and sustainable design of energy systems, including biofuels, photovoltaics, waste-to-energy, carbon capture and separation, shale gas, geothermal, and battery systems, (2) systems analysis, modeling and optimization for the food-energy-water-waste nexus and circular economy, (3) industrial ecology and life cycle sustainability assessment of nanotechnology and advanced materials, (4) material informatics and computer-aided molecular design, (5) supply chain optimization and smart logistics, smart manufacturing, planning, scheduling and control for complex engineering systems, (6) industrial big data analytics and machine learning for soft sensor and IoT, (7) grey-box digital twins and hybrid modeling based on mechanistic and data-driven approaches, and (8) quantum computing and quantum artificial intelligence.</p><ul><li><a href="/energy-systems" hreflang="en">Energy Systems</a></li><li><a href="/sustainable-energy-systems" hreflang="en">Sustainable Energy Systems</a></li><li><a href="/algorithms" hreflang="en">Algorithms</a></li><li><a href="/artificial-intelligence" hreflang="en">Artificial Intelligence</a></li><li><a href="/research-and-faculty/strategic-areas-research/complex-systems-network-science-and-computation" hreflang="en">Complex Systems, Network Science and Computation</a></li><li><a href="/research-and-faculty/strategic-areas-research/energy-and-environment" hreflang="en">Energy and the Environment</a></li><li><a href="/statistics-and-machine-learning" hreflang="en">Statistics and Machine Learning</a></li><li><a href="/computational-science-engineering" hreflang="en">Computational Science and Engineering</a></li><li><a href="/information-theory-and-communications" hreflang="en">Information Theory and Communications</a></li><li><a href="/scientific-computing" hreflang="en">Scientific Computing</a></li><li><a href="/systems-and-networking" hreflang="en">Systems and Networking </a></li><li><a href="/infrastructure-systems" hreflang="en">Infrastructure Systems</a></li><li><a href="/data-mining" hreflang="en">Data Mining</a></li><li><a href="/data-science" hreflang="en">Data Science</a></li><li><a href="/sensors-and-actuators" hreflang="en">Sensors and Actuators</a></li><li><a href="/optical-physics" hreflang="en">Optical Physics</a></li><li><a href="/covid-19-related-research" hreflang="en">COVID-19 Related Research</a></li><li><a href="/robotics-and-autonomy" hreflang="en">Robotics and Autonomy</a></li><li><a href="/optimization" hreflang="en">Optimization</a></li></ul></section><section class="section--faculty-detail faculty-detail__teaching-interests" aria-labelledby="nf-c-1588"><h2 id="nf-c-1588">Teaching Interests</h2><p>Computational Optimization, Industrial Big Data Analytics and Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Quantum Computing and Artificial Intelligence, Life Cycle Assessment and Industrial Ecology, Energy Systems Engineering, and Process Design</p></section><section class="section--faculty-detail faculty-detail__publications" aria-labelledby="nf-e-1588"><h2 id="nf-e-1588">Selected Publications</h2><ul><li>Tao, Y., Rahn, C.D., Archer, L.A., & You, F.
