Professor Wei Zhang is a Ph.D. advisor and recognized among the top 2% of global scientists. He is a Minjiang Scholar Distinguished Professor in Fujian Province, a recipient of the Fujian Province “Hawk Plan” for Outstanding Young Talents, and a part of the Fujian Province Hundred-Thousand-Talent Program as well as an Overseas High-Level Talent of Fujian Province. His research spans various areas including the repair of composite materials, the short-term and long-term performance of reinforced concrete structures, the development of beam-column joints in prefabricated structural systems, structural seismic and collapse control, innovative steel-concrete composite structures, energy-saving performance of phase-change material structures, and the stability of underground structures and shield tunneling technology.

Professor Zhang obtained both his master's and doctoral degrees from Tsukuba University, a prestigious research-oriented national university in Japan and a world-class institution. Following this, he worked at the National University of Singapore, the University of Luxembourg in Europe, and the Czech Academy of Sciences, bringing with him 12 years of overseas study and international research experience. He is proficient in Japanese, English, and French.

His main research achievements include publishing over 70 SCI-indexed journal papers in the field of structural engineering as the first or corresponding author, with 17 of these papers being recognized as highly cited by ESI (Essential Science Indicators), and some also listed as ESI Hot Papers. In addition, he has authored over 30 conference papers, invited reports, EI-indexed papers, and other publications. He holds five international invention patents, five domestic invention patents, and two utility model patents. Some of his research outcomes have been industrialized and widely applied, garnering significant attention and recognition from peers both domestically and internationally.

Professor Zhang has led over 20 research projects funded by national, provincial, and EU grants, as well as industry-commissioned projects. He serves as a peer reviewer for more than 30 academic journals and has been invited to serve as an international reviewer for the Czech National Science Foundation (GACR) and as an adjunct Ph.D. advisor at the Czech Academy of Sciences.
