In recent years, he is mainly engaged in theoretical and engineering application research on new steel structure system, earthquake resistance, wind resistance and structural control. He has participated in the National Natural Science Foundation "Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis and Chaos Research of Mast Structure" (No.:59778030), the State Key Laboratory Project "Theoretical and Experimental Research on Vibration Response and Control of Tower Mast Steel Structure", the postdoctoral fund project of the Ministry of Construction, the Shanghai postdoctoral fund project "Application of Structural Control Technology in Vibration Control of Steel TV Tower" and "Research on Base Isolation of Suqian Cultural and Sports Museum". Responsible for completing more than 20 vertical and horizontal scientific research projects, such as "Wind Tunnel Simulation Experimental Research on Giant Frame Suspended Steel Structure (Shenyang State Taxation Bureau Building)", "Present Situation Evaluation and Reinforcement Design of Machinery Building of Zhangjiagang Donghai Grain and Oil Industry Company" and "Research on Large Canopy Steel Structure of Main Approach Toll Station of Pudong International Airport".
He has published more than 40 papers in academic journals at home and abroad, such as Journal of Civil Engineering and Journal of Building Structure, with textbook 1 as the chief editor, textbook 1 as the deputy editor, monograph 1 as the editor, and translation 1 as the editor. "Theoretical Research and Engineering Application of High-rise Steel Structure Design" won the first prize of 1999 Ministry of Education and the second prize of National Science and Technology Progress Award in 2000.
At present, he is in charge of three natural science foundation projects of Jiangsu Provincial Department of Education, such as "Study on structural system of light steel and light slab multi-storey and small high-rise residential buildings". Member of High-rise Structure Professional Committee of Civil Engineering Society, Chairman of Building Reconstruction Professional Committee of China Infrastructure Optimization Research Society, Secretary-General of Earthquake Engineering Professional Committee of Jiangsu Seismological Society, Editorial Board of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration, and Special Consultant of China Water Resources and Hydropower Publishing House.
