Keynote Speaker
Prof. Zongjin Li
University of Macau (UM), China
Dr. Zongjin LI is Chair professor at
Institute of Applied Physics and Materials Engineering
at University of Macau (UM). He joined UM after his
service Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
from 1994 to 2016. He received his B.E. from Zhejiang
University, Hongzhou, China in 1982 and obtained both
his M.S. and PhD from Northwestern University, Chicago,
U.S.A, in 1990 in 1993, respectively. He is a fellow of
American Concrete Institute and a registered
professional engineer in Hong Kong, China. He is a
member of committees of ISO/TC71, First vice Chair of
China Group of RILEM and Founding President of ACI China
Chapter.
He has done extensive researches in the area of
cement-based materials and non-destructive evaluations.
As the chief scientist, he has led a China Key National
Basic Research Project (973), ‘Basic study on
environmentally friendly contemporary concrete’, which
has made a great contributions to advance concrete
technology in China. As the founding chair of Gordon
Research Conference, “Advanced Materials for Sustainable
Infrastructure Development” in 2014, he has brought the
research conference of building materials into a higher
scientific level.
He has published 5 technical books, in which ‘Advanced
Concrete Technology’ published by John Wiley has been
collected by many national libraries and most major
university libraries and used by many universities as
text or reference books for civil engineering. He has
also published more than 400 technical papers with a SCI
H-index of 36 and Scopus H-index of 39. In 2016, he has
been selected as the one of the 150 most cited authors
in Civil engineering field. He has also been awarded
five US and seven Chinese patents. Three of his patents
have been developed into commercial products.
He received the Arthur R. Anderson Medal from American
Concrete Institute in 2017 and Distinguished Visiting
Fellowship Award from British Royal Academy of
Engineering in 2014.
Invited Speaker
Assoc. Prof. Masahiro Nomura
The University of Tokyo, Japan
Masahiro Nomura is an Associate Professor in Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo. He received Ph.D. degree in Applied Physics in 2005, respectively, from The University of Tokyo. His current research interests include hybrid quantum science, physics and controlling technology of phonon/heat transport in semiconductor nanostructures, and energy harvesting by thermoelectrics. The concept of his current research is “from photonics to phononics” using phononic crystals, which have some physical analogy with photonic crystals. He published over 100 refereed journal articles, and he has over 200 international conference presentations including over 50 invited talks. He is the chairman of Phonon Engineering Society in The Japan Society of Applied Physics. He is a recipient of The Young Scientists’ Prize by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (2012), ISCS Young Scientist Award (2017), German Innovation Award – Gottfried Wagener Prize (2018), Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Prize (2019), and eleven other awards.
