Cui joined Professor Jian Yang's lab at UNNC in 2021 as a PhD student, specializing in dynamics and vibration transmission analysis of linkage systems with nonlinear joints.
She earned her master's degree in mechanical engineering from Northwestern Polytechnical University in 2016.
Prior to starting her PhD, she worked as an intermediate engineer at COMAC for five years.
Cui's research focuses on power flow analysis, vibration transmission, and friction-induced vibration, incorporating both simulation and experimentation.
