On October 12, under the invitation of Traffic Planning and Design Institute of our school, French Knight Medal winner Mark•Mimulamu gave an academic report entitled "Fusion" at SEU and then explored the possibilities of cooperation in bridge creation with our school.
Mr. Mimulamu in his report surrounded the communication and integration between bridge structure and the environment, combined with the practical engineering problems encountered, took into consideration China's national conditions and the level of technology, and then came up with a new design concept. Besides, he also shared his ideas and research experiences, encouraging the bridge workers to carry their dreams, seize the opportunity, be creative and remain committed. After the report, Mr. Mimulamu allocated some time to exchange views on issues such as the ratio of the structural design, stability, vibration, and the coordination of architectural designs with the teachers and students present.
