Zhou Chuanbing,Professor of Water Resources and Hydropower Engineering at Wuhan University, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, recipient of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, Chief Scientist of the National "973 Project", Vice Chairman of the Chinese Society for Rock Mechanics and Engineering, Director of the Seepage and Control Committee of Reservoir Dams of the China Society for Dam Engineering, and Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. He has been engaged in the safety of hydropower engineering, focusing on safety issues of reservoir-dams induced by seepage and deformation. He has established the theory of coupled analysis of seepage and deformation of rock mass, the technology of fine simulation and multi-level control of reservoir-dam seepage, and the technology of three-dimensional reinforcement and control of high slopes in dam areas. His research results have been successfully applied to large hydropower engineering projects such as Baihetan, Jinping, Xiluodu, and the Three-Gorges Project. He has achieved 2 Second Prizes of National Science and Technology Progress, 5 provincial and ministerial Prizes, 24 national patents, 14 software copyrights, and published more than 300 papers.
