Prof. David Zhang is Chair of Manufacturing Systems in the University of Exeter, UK, since 2000. His research over the last 30 years has covered many areas of manufacturing and industrial engineering including advanced manufacturing, agility strategies, supply chain management, agent-based modelling, heuristics, and manufacturing systems. Recent work involves assembly line balancing and optimisation, inventory modelling and management, robust supply chains, additive manufacturing, digital inventory and on-demand manufacturing, and strategies and implementation of distributed hybrid manufacturing systems. Professor Zhang has had over 250 publications, many of which are highly cited. He is an initiator of several research areas in industrial engineering, including agility taxonomy, agent-based modelling for supply chain design, parallel U-shaped assembly lines, manufacturing strategy for implementation of additive manufacturing, and production planning and control in additive manufacturing. He serves as panel members for various grant funding and scholarship councils in the UK, EU, and China.
