Assoc Prof. Dr. Yufeng Jiang | Statistical Applications in Engineering | Best Researcher Award

Ocean University of China | China

Assoc Prof. Dr. Yufeng Jiang is an Associate Professor at the Ocean University of China, specializing in the health monitoring and safety assessment of offshore and marine engineering structures. With a strong academic foundation from the Ocean University of China, he has dedicated his career to advancing intelligent damage diagnosis methods that can directly utilize incomplete information while maintaining high noise robustness. He innovatively developed an iterative two-stage damage identification methodology capable of simultaneously locating structural damage and assessing its severity. Dr. Jiang has designed a hardware network of fiber optic sensors for condition monitoring of deepwater pressure-resistant subsea structures and created an intelligent structural health monitoring and early warning system, which has been successfully applied in a 500-meter deep-sea mixed-transport system demonstration project. His research has led to 20 Documents , 10 patents, and collaboration on three major research projects, resulting in a citation count of 111 and an h-index of 6, reflecting the significant impact of his work. Additionally, he has contributed to two consultancy projects and maintained collaborations across multiple institutions, consistently translating innovative research into practical engineering applications. Dr. Jiang continues to advance the field of marine structural safety with a focus on applied intelligence and robust monitoring solutions.
