ZHOU Research Group

 

Welcome to Intelligent Dynamics and Sensing Innovation Lab (IDeaL) at PolyU!

Mission and Vision:

Our team aims to advance state-of-the-art science and technologies to support practical applications toward enhancing the resilience, reliability, and safety of civil infrastructure. 

The research interests include: (a). Structural dynamics and vibration control; (b). Structural health monitoring; (c). Metamaterial design and optimization;  (d). Smart materials and sensing; (e). Reliability analysis, assessment, and design of engineering structures under uncertainties. (f). Digital twin-enabled cyber-infrastructure system for online human-infrastructure-machine interactive assessment and predictive maintenance.

We intend to leverage the collective strength and synergistic advancement of advanced sensing, physical modeling, heuristic optimization, and machine learning-empowered computational intelligence to pursue the success of the research.
