    QS World Education Group published the lasted World University Rankings. Civil and Structural Engineering, from Tsinghua University, ranked 5th all over the world, and it was the highest subject rankings in mainland universities. QS World University Rankings were based on the appraisal of subjects and global competitions by the authoritative scholars and employers, and the analyses of 22 million literature and 200 million citations from Scopus (the biggest abstract database).

    After one-month development, the wind energy search engine can be found in "Product" section. The engine was completed together with Dr. Sunwei Li, from Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University. Dr. Li gave the results of the density of coastal wind energy and wave energy, the extreme-point of wind speed and wave height, as well as the damage probability of NREL-based OC4 floating rig in offshore scope, whose depth was less than 1000 meters, by numerical simulation and on-site observation of China. It can calculate and display the relevant data for southern and eastern coast of China by the "wind energy search engine" section, which can use the database from the daily routine. Right now, we only open the function "Density Forecast" and other functions will be opened in the future.
