Kong Dequan, male, from Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, the doctor's degree of civil engineering, postdoctor, master supervisor, doctoral supervisor, visiting scholar of Pennsylvania State University (USA). The teacher of geotechnical engineering in School of Civil Engineering, Chang'an University. Mainly engaged in the teaching and research work of underground structure design and geotechnical engineering. The research directions are the optimization design of underground structure, underground energy utilization, soil mechanical properties, soil heritage protection and restoration, development of geocomposite materials, waste reuse and environmental geotechnical engineering. Dr. Kong has presided over or participated in more than ten scientific research projects, including the National 973 Preliminary Special project, the National Science and Technology Support Program, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Natural Science Foundation of Shaanxi Province, the Post Doctoral Fund of Shaanxi Province, the Construction Science and Technology Project of Xi'an city and the Special Fund for Basic Scientific Research Project of central universities. Dr. Kong has published more than 20 papers, including nearly 30 papers indexed by SCI and EI, participated in the compilation of three Standards and Textbooks, and was granted seven patents.

As an experienced international master's and doctoral supervisor, my research team has many international master's and doctoral students from various countries who have done excellent work and achieved many good research results. Our team is an international family, and we welcome master's and doctoral students who are interested in civil engineering and geotechnical engineering to join us. We will provide useful guidance and assistance in life, study, research, and work. Looking forward to meeting you at Chang'an University, I believe we can have a pleasant time and achieve fruitful results!
