Personal profile
Name in Chinese
My research focuses on sustainable and resilient design for future buildings and pavements, enabled by advanced construction materials, waste valorization and carbon-capture processes. My research vision is to push the boundaries of civil engineering by integrating cross-disciplinary insights and developing new technologies to create innovative solutions to practical engineering challenges. In addition to publications, I am deeply committed to increasing the technology readiness level (TRI) of promising technologies, and translating research into commercially viable outcomes, with the ultimate goal of launching them as start-up ventures.
