My research interests reside in structural geology, discrete element model and analogue model, as well as high performance computing (OpenMP, GPU).

Employment

  • 03/2019-Present Scientific research and teaching in Structural Geology, School of Earth Sciences, East China University of Technology, China
  • 2019.11~2020.11 Visiting Scholar at the Research Institute of Petroleum Exploration and Development (RIPED), China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC)

Education

  • 2018.04~2018.06 Earth Observatory of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University ( short visit, supervised by Prof. Paul TAPPONNIER and Dr. Liqing JIAO)

  • 08.2014~03.2019 Ph.D. in Structural Geology, School of Earth Sciences and Engineering, Nanjing University, China

    I used discrete element model (DEM) and analogue model (AM) experiment to quantify and simulate the evolution of thrust wedge. Quantitative field data and laboratory data are combined with computer modeling, to help establish robust features of tectonic models on the scale of the upper crust. Recently, I am working on a parallel Discrete Element Model based on CPU/GPU._

  • 09.2012~06.2014 M.S. in Geological Engineering, School of Earth Sciences and Engineering, Nanjing University, China

    I investigated the characteristics of deformation, stress field and failure of soil–rock mixture by using numerical simulation and triaxial test with computed tomography (CT) scan.
