About me
I received my bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering from Sichuan University and my Ph.D. degree in Civil Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China.
I am currently a Lecturer at Kunming University of Science and Technology, China.
My current research interests include BSE-EDS image analysis, microstructure characterization, and the applications of machine learning in cementitious materials.
