Dr Lanting Lu

After completing an MSc in Operational Research (Southampton, 2005), I was supported by Ford Motor Company to complete my PhD in Operational Research (Southampton, 2009). The main part of my PhD was the modelling of machine breakdown durations in simulation models of engine assembly lines; the developed modelling methodology involves the use of the Arrows classification method and finite mixture distributions.

I joined PenTAG as a decision analytic modeller. My main research interests are in cost-effectiveness analysis and simulation modelling.
