Biography
My research mainly focuses on the analysis of tectonic deformation and the causes of major geological disasters, as well as the investigation and identification of active faults at engineering sites. Currently, my interests include the application of high-resolution remote sensing data in earthquake and disaster risk assessment, the expansion of ground fissure activity and its impact on the stability of linear engineering projects, fault kinematics and seismic hazard analysis based on big data, and mitigation measures for linear engineering crossing active faults. I am committed to providing scientific support for engineering safety and disaster prevention.
