Welcome to Cai Lab.

–Structural Engineering and Materials Lab.

Our research focuses on:

(1) Structural Engineering: High-performance RC/Composite structures, Structural risk analysis, and optimization under extreme loads (large earthquakes, impact loads, etc.), Sustainable structures (Eco-concrete, Bio- etc.), High-performance simulation (OpenSees, C++, Python), Structure repairing and strengthening, Seismic response analysis, Structural optimization;

​

(2)Construction Materials: Functional materials, Optimization of Eco-cementitious composite system, High-performance & sustainable materials, Smart materials, Materials recycling, Bio-based materials

​

(3) Next generation advanced technologies:

AI-Application (AIA), Compute-vision, Smart formwork systems, Structures with 3D printed components, etc.
