CV

Background:

I am currently an associate professor on geotechnical engineering in Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). I obtained my bachelor and MSc degrees in Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in 2010 and 2012, respectively. In 2016, I earned my PhD degree on Geotechnical Engineering in National University of Singapore (NUS), following which I worked as a research fellow. In 2020, I joined NTNU as an associate professor. 

Research Interest:

Ground improvement; Seepage; Risk Assessment; Offshore Geotechnical Engineering

Teaching:

TBA5150 Geohazard and Risk

TBA5155 Foundations and Slopes
