Dec. 18, 2012 - Science and Technology Daily published an article on Dec. 11 with interviews with academicians.architectureMaterials expert, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, professor of Southeast University, Miao Changwen, revealed in the interview that the current major projects using theconcreteThe material is designed to last 100-120 years, and they hope that thepassAITechnology to extend the design life of concrete to 200 years.
Academician Miao Changwen has been working in the field of concrete research for more than 30 years. He has led his team to participate in many projects, including the Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River, the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway, the Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant in Jiangsu Province, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the South-to-North Water Diversion and other major national projects, as well as foreign projects, such as the Karachi Nuclear Power Plant in Pakistan, the Padma Bridge in Bangladesh, and the Huaca Hydroelectric Power Plant in Belize.
1AINoting that academician Miao Changwen revealed in an interview that China produces 8 - 10 billion tons of concrete annually.Production accounts for more than 50% globally, making it the world's largest producer and user of infrastructure construction materials.In terms of basic theories and key technologies for the application of high performance concrete, China has reached the "parallel" level internationally. In the application of basic theories and key technologies of high performance concrete, our country has reached the "parallel" level in the international arena, and some of the new materials and technologies have reached the "leading" level in the international arena. However, there is still a gap between us and the international top level in terms of common basic theories of construction materials and cutting-edge engineering technologies.
In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has emerged. Academician Miao Changwen said in this regard that data-driven design, which combines information from multiple sources such as high-throughput computing, large databases and machine learning, has become an emerging path that breaks through traditional limitations, theIt also enables the reverse design of building materials to be guided by performance requirements.. Artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies can effectively empower the development of low-carbon, green and functionalized building materials.
"In the future, this type of technology will be applied more to the design, development and application of building materials. Our team is also actively following up on the research work thatDeveloping a material intelligent design platform by establishing a large database of engineering materials, realizing the high performance of engineering materials and safeguarding the application needs of major projects."
