On-going projects

 
  • 2023-2024  | This project, officially granted in July 2023, is funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China to host high-level foreign experts. As part of this program, I conduct seminars/lectures and engage in meetings with Ph.D. students. Chinese contact: Dr. Zhenhua WANG, School of Aeronautics, Harbin Institute of Technology (zhenhua.wang@hit.edu.cn).

  • 2019-2023 |  COCOTIER project: see at here.

Some past projects
