Hello everyone, welcome to my homepage! Good morning, and in case I don’t see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night! I am a Research Assistant in Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, supervised by Prof. Zhe Wang and Prof. Dengbo He. I received my master degree in School of Mechanical Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, supervised by Prof. Fan Yu and Prof. Xi Zhang in 2020. I received my B.Eng. degree in School of Mechanical Engineering at Donghua University in 2017.

My research interests include autonomous vehicles, vehicle system dynamics and human factors. I have published 5 papers at the top international conferences and SCI journals (Details are shown in Google Scholar).

In addition to my formal scientific research status, I am also a very smiling person in life. Please appreciate my smile.

May you have a promising future！
