UHPCC Under Impact and Blast

Dr. Qin FANG is a professor of Civil Engineering at Army Engineering University of PLA, China. His research interests include dynamic responses and reinforcement measures of engineering structures under severe loads, such as blast, impact, fire and earthquake. The academic achievements have been widely applied in Chinese codes for protective structures. He has published three academic books entitled “Concrete Structures under Projectile Impact”, “Underground protective structure” (in Chinese) and “Analysis and design of protective structure” (in Chinese), as well as over 400 journal and conference papers. He has been funded by many research projects, such as the Science Fund for Creative Research Groups of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the National Science Foundation for Distinguished Youth Scholar, the National Basic Research Program of China and so on. Currently, he is a member of the executive board of International Association of Protective Structures, the vicechairman of the Protective Engineering Division of China Civil Engineering Society, as well as a member of the editorial board of International Journal of Protective Structures. Dr. Hao WU is a professor of Civil Engineering at Tongji University, China. He was majored in the research work on the damage/failure and the dynamic responses of civil infrastructures under intensive impact and blast loadings. He has published 3 academic monographs and 120 academic papers, concerning the high-speed penetration dynamics, ultra-high performance concrete material and structure, nuclear plant under aircraft crash, and highway bridge against collision and blast, etc. Dr. Xiangzhen KONG is a lecturer of Civil Engineering at Army Engineering University of PLA, China. His research interests include penetration dynamics, constitutive modelling of engineering materials and high-fidelity-physical-based numerical simulation. He has published an academic books entitled “Notes on projectileimpact analyses” and over 40 journal papers. He is the middle-aged editorial board member for “Journal of Beijing University of Technology” (in Chinese).
