On November 24-25, the "Ninth National BIM Academic Conference" sponsored by the BIM Professional Committee of China Graphics Society and hosted by GlodonCompany Limited was held in Xi 'an City, with the theme of "Digital Foundation Insight into the future".

Professor Zhang Jianping, Deputy Supervisor of China Graphics Society and the first Chairman of BIM Special Committee, attended the meeting, Professor Ma Zhiliang, current chairman of BIM Special Committee, attended the meeting and made a special invited report, and Assistant researcher Lin Jiarui presided over the plenary meeting. My doctoral student He Jiaze gave an oral report to share in the sub-conference.

This conference will focus on the integration and innovation of BIM technology with CIM, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and other cutting-edge technologies, the in-depth application of a new generation of information technology in the construction industry, and the collaborative development of BIM related industries. Experts and scholars from all walks of life gathered in the ancient capital of Xi 'an to share the annual international BIM academic exchange event.

Research group paper Discharge of treated Fukushima nuclear accident contaminated water: macroscopic and microscopic simulations selected in the third Shenzhen Excellent Scientific and Technological Academic paper Achievement Award!

This paper establishes the diffusion model of radioactive materials from the macro and micro perspectives, realizes the long-term simulation of the Fukushima nuclear contaminated water discharge plan adopted by the Japanese government, and reveals the mechanism of the diffusion of nuclear elements with ocean currents after discharge.

We continue to pay attention to the issue of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water discharge into the sea, and will continue to study the environmental ecological and human health risks brought by it!

The open access paper "Development of a micro-in-meso-scale framework for simulating pollutant dispersion and wind environment in building groups" , published in Elsevier, has been selected as an open project for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in recognition of its contribution to tackling some of the world's toughest challenges.

In this paper, a micro-in-meso-scale framework is proposed for the simulation of building wind environment and pollutant diffusion. The findings are considered by the SDGs to have far-reaching implications for achieving its third goal (SDG3) - ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.

Thanks to Elsevier for supporting the research of the research group and providing the opportunity of open access platform. This open form of scientific exchange makes research more widely available and beneficial, helping to accelerate the realization of the vision of the global Sustainable Development Goals. The group will work to promote the development of open science and encourage peers to actively share their work to promote scientific progress and solve global challenges.

Note: The SDGs are a set of 17 long-term development goals developed by the UN to address major challenges such as poverty, hunger, inequality and climate change.

It is my honor to be invited to participate in the "Construction Technology" wechat public account [Dialogue] column, and to answer relevant questions. At present, the views I share have been pushed on the public platform of the journal, see the link for details.

In the course of answering the questions, I highlighted the importance of civil engineering and firmly believed that the civil construction industry has never been in the sunset, on the contrary, it has been one of the pillars of national prosperity since ancient times. Whether it is urban construction, transport infrastructure or environmental protection, civil engineering plays a key role. At the same time, I highlighted the impact of technological progress and social development on civil engineering, and pointed out the innovation and evolution in the field. Emerging technologies, innovative methods and cutting-edge concepts have opened up new forms of business and supplies in terms of building structures and infrastructure, bringing a new experience to urban life. Obviously, it will also require a large number of people with interdisciplinary knowledge to drive this change.

"Research on Assessment of Smart Maturity for Construction Stage of Construction Industry" has been published in the "Construction Technology" on CNKI.

The application of a large amount of information technology has prompted the construction industry, especially in the construction stage, to enter a period of smart development. However, the prerequisite for enterprises within the industry to achieve high-speed smart development is to clarify their own current smart maturity. The study established a framework of smart maturity assessment systems for various segments in the construction stage, detailing the components and operational process of five steps, including selecting maturity assessment methods, developing assessment indicators, presenting assessment results, verifying the assessment system, and discussing strategies for improving smart maturity. Using this as the master template, a smart maturity assessment system for construction management has been constructed and the feasibility, accuracy, and specific usage methods of the smart maturity assessment system framework have been further demonstrated through case analysis. In summary, the above framework can help accurately assess the smart maturity of each segment in the construction stage, and formulate feasible smart development plans, providing fundamental support for the smart development of each segment in the construction stage and the overall construction industry.
