26 November 2021, Discharge of treated Fukushima nuclear accident contaminated water: macroscopic and microscopic simulations has been published on National Science Review, which is a full affirmation of the students and teachers of the subject group who are generous and rigorous in their learning! NSR officer micro-push high-quality and efficient, reflecting China's outstanding leading journals of the super-class level! Thanks to the director of singhua University's Institute for Ocean Engineering (IOE), Zhang Jianmin's guidance and support, thanks to the editorial department and reviewers for their high evaluation!

The results of this study are of great significance for the prediction of long-term spread of pollutants, the rational response of nuclear wastewater discharge plans and the monitoring of subsequent radioactive material concentrations. In the future, we will continue to deepen our research, Further explore the long-term impact of the discharge of nuclear waste water on the whole ocean and mankind, and provide important decision support for the country and the world to deal with the nuclear wastewater crisis!

Note: National Science Review , whose impact factor in 2021 is 17.275, is the top journal in the multi-discipline domain. For more information, please see the introduction video.

The citation count of "Construction and facility management of large MEP projects using a multi-scale building information model" on Google Scholar is 100. 

Several challenges have been found in the current applications of building information modelling/model (BIM) technology in large-scale mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) projects, such as the huge modelling workloads of MEP models and details, untapped potential in supporting cooperative construction management with multiple participants and insufficient functions for intelligent facility management. This paper proposes a multi-scale solution to address the insufficiencies of the current applications in the construction and facility management of MEP projects. Particularly, a practical multi-scale BIM consisting of several macro-, micro- and schematic-scale information models is described in detail with the required information of the MEP components according to the schema of industrial foundation classes. Based on this model, the paper presents a BIM-based construction management system to provide virtual construction scenes with appropriate scales for various participants to communicate and cooperate, as well as a BIM-based facility management system to share information delivered from previous phases and improve the efficiency and safety of MEP management during the operation and maintenance period. The application in a real-world airport terminal illustrates that the proposed model and two systems can support collaborative construction management and facility management with multi-scale functionalities among participants. This paper proposes a series of feasible models and techniques to promote BIM application in large MEP projects.

Note: Advances in Engineering Software, interdisciplinary journal in Q1 region. I am the first author of the paper.

On September 29, the Qinghua Human Resources WeChat account published a post titled "Qingjiao Award Special Feature | Hu Zhenzhong: Practicing 'Educating the Children of Heaven, Cultivating the Pillars of the State'". It reported on my winning the Qinghua University Young Teachers Teaching Award (Qingjiao Award). See link for details.

"The world's top 100 universities are all about educating people, and the top profession in the world is still teaching." I have always used this to encourage myself, and I have been dedicated to teaching on the platform of Tsinghua University, carrying out the initial aspirations and missions of education. Tsinghua University's emphasis on education and teaching, and its advocacy of ethical conduct among teachers, have made me feel a great sense of responsibility. This award is not only an affirmation of my personal teaching practice, but also an encouragement to the young teachers at Tsinghua University.

Thank you for the recent push of Tsinghua Personnel Public Account, which gives me the opportunity to share my teaching experience with more educational colleagues.
