Ph.D. Students
Outstanding young scholars exploring frontiers of hydraulic science
Xu Yaqian
Ph.D. Student, Wuhan University
Born 1992, from Hanchuan, Hubei. She is pursuing a Ph.D. in civil and hydraulic engineering at Wuhan University, focusing on water-resource protection and efficient use; her master’s, from Hubei University of Technology, addressed the ecological effects and ecological operation of large reservoirs, and included a short visit to Portland State University. As a core member she has joined 7 national projects and published 4 papers in SCI/EI and core journals.
Wei Chenyu
Ph.D. Student, Wuhan University
Born 1993, from Harbin. He is pursuing a Ph.D. at Wuhan University in river–lake protection and management, studying the interactions between algal blooms and dissolved-gas components in water. He has published several SCI/EI papers and holds 2 invention patents.
Zeng Yiheng
Ph.D. Student, China Three Gorges University
Born 1997, from Yichang, Hubei. He is pursuing a Ph.D. in hydraulic engineering at China Three Gorges University. His master’s work concerned water-environment quality management in the Yanghe basin; he now studies the degradation mechanisms of riparian and wetland vegetation, with two papers published and one patent.
Wan Ziming
Ph.D. Student, China Three Gorges University
Born 1998, from Huanggang, Hubei. He is pursuing a Ph.D. in hydraulic engineering at China Three Gorges University. His master’s research covered deep-foundation construction risk and reservoir tributary denitrification flux; he now studies the dissolved-oxygen balance and ecosystem classification of the Three Gorges Reservoir.
Peng Zekang
Ph.D. Student, Hubei University of Technology
Born 2000, from Xinhua, Hunan. He is pursuing a Ph.D. in civil engineering at Hubei University of Technology. His master’s work developed non-contact methods for rapid identification of solution concentration using machine-learning models; he now studies how turbulence microstructure regulates bubble–microalgae aggregates and their effect on vertical algal migration.
