BIO

My research mainly focus on applying computer science and signal processing technologies in civil engineering area to make our city green and smart.
In particular, my current works cover pipeline hydraulics, non-destructive testing of pipeline networks, infrastructure sensor network optimisation, smart water grid and water supply.
I'm also interested in acoustic wave modeling, inverse scattering techniques and nonlinear inversion methods. My previous work also includes ocean environment inversion, underwater acoustics, underwater localization and robot navigation.
