1、President Ye Yuru delivered a keynote speech on "Contributing to the Greater Bay Area to Cope with Population Aging" at the main forum of the Greater Bay Area Science Forum. She pointed out that China has become one of the countries with the largest elderly population and the fastest aging rate in the world. It is estimated that by 2025, there will be 380 million people aged 65 and above, accounting for 27.9% of the total population, which will bring medical resources to the society. and other pressures, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area can respond to the challenges brought about by population aging through technological and innovative means.

2、Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) "Intersecting Technology and Digital Economy Forum" was successfully held on May 20. The forum invited Professor Shen Xiangyang, Chairman of the Council of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Professor Hu Bin, Dean of the School of Medical Technology and the Institute of Medical-Industrial Integration of Beijing Institute of Technology, and Huang Kai, President's Chair Professor of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen), to give keynote speeches. More than 400 guests from academia and industry gathered together to discuss relevant cutting-edge technologies and social application prospects. (Click here for details)
3. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) jointly held the "Technical Seminar on the Development of Future Maritime Habitat Engineering". The symposium focused on topics such as basic science of marine human settlements, key engineering technologies, and future development policies and models. Thirteen top experts, scholars and industry leaders in related fields were invited to deliver keynote reports, and six special guests were organized to conduct a roundtable discussion. Meeting. Professor Wang Yang, Vice President (University Development) of HKUST pointed out that this seminar is the first large-scale event jointly organized by the two universities, which provides a good platform for the exchanges between the industries of the two places. Exchange and cooperation. (Click here for details)
4. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Zhang Limin's research team published "The Workability of the Large-diameter Steel Cylinder of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge with Multi-vibration Hammers" in "Engineering", the journal of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Based on geological survey, construction monitoring and numerical simulation, this paper studies the vibration driving process of large-diameter steel cylinders in Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao, and studies the vibration driving rate, installation accuracy and dynamic response of steel cylinders in the east and west artificial islands. analyzed. Since the dynamic frictional resistance of the soil has an important influence on the playability of the steel cylinder, the current design method for dynamic frictional resistance lacks accuracy because it cannot consider the size effect. For this reason, this paper proposes a calculation method of soil vibration friction resistance for the non-soil plug working condition of a large-diameter open thin-walled steel cylinder. The playability analysis results using the dynamic friction resistance model proposed in the article are closer to the measured data, which provides a reference for future engineering practice.
5. The research team of Dr. Yin Ran from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology published the research results: the advanced oxidation process based on the new far ultraviolet rays controls new pollutants in water . This study proposes for the first time that the new far-ultraviolet radiation is coupled with hypochlorous acid and chlorinated isocyanate to construct an advanced oxidation system with ultra-high free radical yield, which can achieve ultra-fast degradation of new pollutants with different structures. The article clarified the photochemical properties of hypochlorous acid and chlorinated isocyanate under 222 nm far ultraviolet light, established a kinetic model by measuring the real quantum yield of various chlorine and chlorinated isocyanate, and evaluated the coupling system for 25 new pollutants The degradation effect of pollutants has been demonstrated, and the outstanding advantages and application potential of this process have been demonstrated in deionized water, swimming pool water and surface water. The research was recently published in Environmental Science & Technology, a well-known academic journal in the environmental field.
