I work as a Postdoctoral Fellow and Assistant Lecturer in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Alberta (UofA). I received my Ph.D. in Mining Engineering from UofA in September 2023, an MS in Geotechnical Engineering from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in June 2019, and a BE in Geological Engineering from the Anhui University of Science and Technology in June 2016.
In 2024, I joined the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (E.I.T.). I am also a member of the Society of Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum since 2022.
I have cross-disciplinary study and research experience. My research interests focus on promoting Smart Mining Operations utilizing advanced machine learning techniques and sensing technologies to develop technically understandable, interpretable, and user-friendly machine learning toolkits.
Applied machine learning in mine transport, cement mixture design, and geothermal areas.
Optimization and design of mine transport (e.g., truck fleet & production/productivity)
Fiber optic sensing (e.g., FBG & DAS) and its engineering applications (e.g., rock physics & percolation monitoring and CO2 leakage monitoring & risk assessment)
Remote sensing (e.g., small drone) and its engineering applications
CO2 geological storage
Graphic user interface design and development
