Tan Sui

Dr Tan Sui is an Associate Professor (Reader) in Materials Engineering, the School of Mechanical Engineering Sciences at the University of Surrey, UK. She holds Royal Academy of Engineering Industrial Fellowship and visiting role at the National Physical Laboratory, UK. She is also a Chartered Scientist (CSci) and a Fellow (FIMMM) of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IoM3). She is a Fellow of the Women's Engineering Society (FWES).

Dr Sui's research efforts have been devoted to characterising, modelling and understanding the intricate links between structure and mechanical behaviour, property degradation and failure mechanisms in complex material systems. These systems include nuclear fusion alloys and bioinspired materials, with the aim of enhancing design and prolonging their operational lifetime. Her expertise includes advanced micro/nano-mechanical testing, multi-scale residual stress evaluation, engineering microscopy, large-scale facility: synchrotron X-ray and neutron techniques and modelling with finite element methods and machine learning for structural integrity.
