He has many years of scientific research and product development experience in motor design, production, drive and control. Invented a variety of advanced permanent magnet and superconducting machine topologies to solve many key technical problems of large-scale special permanent magnet motors. Published more than 300 papers indexed by SCI and EI, including more than 100 papers indexed by SCI, 200 papers indexed by EI, 2 papers won the IEEE IAS Best Paper Award, 3 papers received the ICEMS Best Paper Award, and 1 paper received the ICEM Best Paper Awards, 1 paper won the ECCE Best Paper Award, 1 paper received the IEEE IAS Distinguished Paper Award, and 1 paper received the IEEE IPCC Outstanding Paper Award; authorized / applied more than 100 invention patents in the United States, Europe and China. While working at GE's Global R & D Center, he was engaged in the research and development of various high-speed, high-power, high-power-density permanent magnets, superconductors and other new motors. As the person in charge of motor technology, he chaired and participated in the completion of a number of advanced motor technology research and development projects supported by the US Department of Energy, the Department of Defense, and GE, with a total project funding of more than $ 30 million and he received 11 awards including technical achievement award, outstanding team award and management award within 8 years.

After returning to China, he is responsible for a number of major national, provincial and ministerial scientific research projects, including the National Science and Technology Support Plan, Major Science and Technology Projects, the "863" Plan, the National Strong Foundation Project, the National Natural Science Foundation, the Ministry of Education "Innovation Team", and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Intelligent manufacturing comprehensive standardization and new model application project, Hubei Province Science and Technology Major Project, Hubei Province Science and Technology Support Plan, Guangdong Province Science and Technology Major Project, etc. He also carried out scientific research cooperation with a number of state-owned and private enterprises on high-performance motors and drive systems. Relevant research results are continuously applied to wind power generation, electric vehicles, marine power, aviation propulsion, high-end CNC machine tools, high-speed rail traction, oil and gas and other industries, and are gradually creating good economic benefits for enterprises. The “Electric Vehicle Drive Motor System” project undertaken by him was awarded the 2013 China-Academy-Research Cooperation Innovation Achievement Award. The project “Key Technologies and Applications of Magnetic Field Modulated Permanent Magnet Synchronous AC Servo Motors” won the 2017 First Prize of Scientific and Technological Progress in Hubei Province.
