Senbo Xiao
About
Senbo Xiao studied biophysics at Nankai University in China (2000~2007), and did his PhD on molecular biophysics at Heidelberg University in Germany (2007~2011). He worked as a postdoc at the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (2011~2013), and the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (2013~2015). Since 2015, he has been working at NTNU focusing on Nanomechanics. In 2022, He became an associate professor at the Department of Structural Engineering.
Senbo Xiao is interested generally in the nanoscale mechanisms of different phenomena in nature and in laboratory. His research heavily involves molecular dynamics simulations, different multiscale modeling methodologies, and experiments in deciphering the structure-property-function relationship in materials science. His focuses include:
- Icing and hydrate formation
- Icevoltaics
- Interface mechanics
- Soft materials mechanics
- Nano-enabled enhaced oil recovery
- Carbon capture and storage
Currently, Senbo Xiao is holding an ERC consolidator's grant, IceVoltaics, seeking for realizing green energy recovery from the freezing process of water-based solutions. For more details, please check his research projects.
The NTNU Nanomechanical Lab (https://www.ntnu.edu/nml) is offering different topics for master thesis concerning nanoscale icing, anti-icing, anti-hydrate, icing energy and many others. If you are interested, please contact the professors in the research group.
The research group also offer new PhD and postdoc positions. Please check the group webpage for details, or contact the professors directly.
Research
Atomistic interactions across interfaces
Atomistic interactions underlie materials properties. To name a few examples, adhesion of water molecules on a surface determines the hydrophobicity and further the icephobicity of the surface; interactions of chemicals and functional groups in a material with CO2 define the CO2-philicity of the materials applied in carbon capture and storage; atomistic interactions between two dis-similar materials decide the dynamics and the robustness of the interface between the two materials. Because atomistic interactions are commonly at a small scale beyond the limit of resolution in experiments, studies of their direct nanoscale effects on material structure, properties and functions generally require techniques like advanced atomistic modeling, as the exmaple shown in Fig. 1.
Figure 1. Probing nanoscale ice adhesion on silicon wafer by atomistic modeling.
Icevoltaics
Water and aqueous solutions release a huge amount of thermal energy during freezing. Accessing energy utilizing the freezing process has never been attempted until today. This research topic aims to combine high-throughput computing and nanotechnology (Fig. 2) for the first time to enable energy exploration in the freezing process of aqueous solutions. Similar to photovoltaics technology used in solar panels today, future icevoltaics technology will be used in icevoltaics panels for harvesting energy during the icing process. This project will seed an entirely new sustainable energy field of research and applications.
Figure 2. Convergence of high-throughput computing and nanotechnology for new energy
Molecular mechanics: mechanical stability of molecular structrues
The mechanical stability of molecular structures is the basis of materials properties. For example, clusters of ordered hydrogen bonds results in robust nano-crystalline polymer structures and further tough spider-silk fibers (Fig. 3a); special molecular connections lead to the great adaptability of muscles under different load conditions (Fig. 3b); assembly of graphene sheets mimicking the hierarchical structures of fishscales enables new bio-inspired mechanical functions on a novel surface (Fig. 3c). This topic focuses on using atomistic modeling to rebuild molecular structures in computer, employing molecular dynamics simulations to apply load onto the molecular structures, and further accessing the mechanical properties of the molecular structures, with the aim of understanding the possible functions of molecular structures under external mechanical loads.

Research Group
Icevoltaics: from the Workman-Reynolds Freezing Potentials to Electrical Energy
This project will focus on utilizing icing for electricity generation. Similar to photovoltaics technology used in solar panels, future icevoltaics technology will be used in icevoltaics panels for harvesting energy during the icing process.
Sharing experience and knowledge in the field of multiscale modelling of materials
This project strengthens international cooperation and knowledge exchange in multi-scale modelling of materials and also develops collaborative work between the Brno University of Technology and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
