Proceedings of The 17th East Asian-Pacific Conference on Structural Engineering and Construction, 2022 : EASEC-17, Singapore

This book presents articles from The 17th East Asian-Pacific Conference on Structural Engineering and Construction, 2022, organized by National University of Singapore. These peer-reviewed articles, authored by professional engineers, academics and researchers, highlight the recent research and developments in structural engineering and construction, embracing the theme- “Towards a Resilient and Sustainable City”. The papers presented in this proceeding provide in-depth discussions with key insights into the future research, development and engineering translation in structural engineering and construction.

Dr. Guoqing Geng received his PhD and postdoc training from UC Berkeley (2017) and Paul Scherrer Institute (2019), respectively. He joined National University of Singapore as an Assistant Professor since 2019. He has research interests in sustainability and performance based innovation of modern construction materials, as well as predicting and enhancing their long-term durability. He is a member of the American Concrete Institute and several technical committees of International Union of Laboratories and Experts in Construction Materials, Systems and Structures.

Dr QIAN Xudong is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He is currently the Director at the Centre for Advanced Materials and Structures. His research interest covers experimental fracture mechanics, fracture and fatigue assessment for large-scale structural components, welded connections, steel-concrete-steel composite structures, polymer composite materials, and digital twin solutions with sensor interfacing. He is a member of the ASTM technical committee E8 on fatigue and fracture and F42 on additive manufacturing.

Dr Leong Hien POH is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the National University of Singapore. He is interested in developing predictive material models and numerical techniques that bridge across different spatial and/or temporal scales. His research topics include mechanics of materials, damage mechanics, multi-scale methods, homogenization techniques, and protective technology against impact loadings.
