Assoc. Prof. Dr. Yu-ji Tai | Structural Engineering | Young Scientist Award
Deputy Director | Anhui University of Technology | China
Yu-ji Tai is an Associate Professor and Deputy Director of the Department of Civil Engineering at Anhui University of Technology, specializing in structural vibration control and nonlinear dynamics. He has developed original inerter-based damping theories and devices, including crank train and Scotch yoke inerters, addressing broadband, multimodal wind and seismic vibration mitigation in large-scale structures. His professional experience includes leading multiple nationally and provincially funded research projects, close collaboration with major bridge engineering institutions, and principal investigator roles on applied and theoretical studies for landmark infrastructure. He has published extensively in high-impact international journals and holds several authorized invention patents. His scholarly contributions are complemented by service as a Guest Editor for Buildings, an inaugural Youth Editorial Board Member of the Journal of Dynamic Disasters, and active membership in leading professional societies in mechanics, vibration engineering, and civil engineering, with a research impact reflected by 163 citations, 18 publications, and an h-index of 7.
