Beijing Institute of Technology Academician Daining Fang won the 2016 Ho Leung Ho Lee Fund Science and Technology Progress Award

On October 21, 2016, the Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation 2016 Annual Awards Conference was held at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing. Changzhi Chen, Vice Chairman of the National People's Congress, Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Minister of Science and Technology Gang Wan presented prizes to 51 award-winning scientists. Academician Daining Fang of our school won the "Science and Technology Progress Award."

 

Academician Daining Fang is an expert in material mechanics. He has been engaged in the study of mechanical theory, calculations and experimental methods for advanced materials and structures under the coupling of force, electromagnetic and thermal fields. Expanded the macroscopic micro-deformation and fracture theory of ferroelectric/ferromagnetic materials, and obtained applications in finite element analysis and device design; developed the multi-field force-electromagnetic multi-scale computational method and design preparation method for lightweight multi-functional composite materials. The lightweight multi-functional materials and structures prepared were applied to the construction of advanced materials, electromagnetic and thermal multi-field multi-axis loading and testing technologies and experimental methods were developed, and basic research results were transformed into more than ten kinds of independent intellectual property rights. Scientific instruments and get popularized applications. He won 2 National Natural Science Awards and won 2 National Outstanding Ph.D. Dissertations winners. Among the graduate students, 2 have been selected for the National Youth 1000.

 

The Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation was founded in 1994 by Hong Kong patriotic financiers Shanheng He, Yi Liang, Tian He, ​​and Guowei Li. It aims to reward outstanding Chinese scientists and promote scientific progress and innovation in China. For 22 years, the Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation Science and Technology Award, with its impartiality and authority, has enjoyed a high reputation in China's scientific community a, and its international influence has increased.
