- Did research on the fire performance of concrete using novel fire testing.+ Built a novel test setup with a radiant panel system and the digital image correlation technique (DIC) to address two major drawbacks of the conventional testing method. + Quantified the thermal load imposed by the radiant panel system through view factors to ensure a well-controlled thermal boundary condition.+ Enhanced the DIC system to overcome the four significant challenges associated with deformation measurement at elevated temperatures.+ Conducted an extensive experiment with two mix designs of high strength concrete up to 450 oC with various influencing factors. + Investigated mechanical properties of concrete at ‘hot’ and ‘residual’ conditions (fire and post-fire), especially Poisson’s ratio which is rare in the literature.+ Measured and assessed load-induced thermal strain (LITS), a unique characteristic of concrete.+ Investigated the transverse LITS, which is very limited in the literature.+ Examined the research gap concerning the experiment method related to LITS's absence during cooling.- Tutored undergraduate students in the Structural Mechanics (CIVL2330) course.- Worked as a teaching assistant in the Reinforced Concrete Design (CIVL2360) and Advanced Concrete Design (CIVL4333) courses.- Mentored Master students in doing research.Achievements:- My testing method has been novel and unique in Australia (until the present, 2021). - I have authored one high-quality paper in a Q1 journal and one paper in an international conference. - I presented my research results at three international conferences.
