On the afternoon of Oct.31, Prof. Zheng Zhong, from School of Aerospace Engineering and Applied Mechanics of Tongji University, was invited to give us a lecture on the topic of “Elasticity – Plasticity Analysis about Gradient Materials Structure”. More than 70 teachers and graduate students of our faculty and School of Mechanical Engineering heard the lecture.

The lecture was held at the 3rd reporting hall of our conference center. Dean Prof. Ying Luo hosted the lecture and gave a brief introduction about Prof. Zheng Zhong at the beginning of the lecture.

His lecture sparked our teachers and students’ interests in the field of functionally gradient material. Many teachers and students exchanged their academic ideas with Prof. Zheng Zhong after the lecture.
