Professor | Kunming University of Science and Technology | Best Innovation Award
Prof. Meiqian Wang is a researcher and faculty member at Kunming University of Science and Technology, specializing in geotechnical mechanics, geological engineering, and engineering project management. His work focuses on the mechanical behavior, sandification mechanisms, and disaster-control technologies of sandy dolomite, contributing to major infrastructure projects in Southwest China. He has led two research projects and participated in several significant initiatives, including a major science and technology project of the Yunnan Provincial Science and Technology Department, multiple National Natural Science Foundation projects, open fund studies, and enterprise-oriented engineering investigations. During his doctoral period, he achieved notable academic productivity, publishing seven first-author papers, including five SCI-indexed articles—with one in a top-tier journal—and one core Chinese publication. His work has also extended to engineering geology, machine-learning-based rock property evaluation, and structural stability analyses in complex geological conditions. In addition to scholarly publications, he has contributed substantially to scientific and technological innovation, holding one invention patent, five utility model patents, and four computer software copyrights related to rock mechanics testing, data acquisition, and analysis systems. He has collaborated extensively with interdisciplinary teams on tunnel engineering, rock mass behavior, and large water-diversion project studies, further enhancing the scientific understanding of rock sandification processes. His professional contributions include serving as a journal editorial board member and reviewer for several SCI journals in civil engineering and geosciences, reflecting his growing international academic presence. His research has delivered tangible societal benefits by supporting safer, more efficient design and construction practices in high-risk geological environments, thereby advancing regional infrastructure resilience and sustainability.
