Ya Wei is a Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Tsinghua University, specializing in Civil Engineering and Transportation Engineering. Their research focuses on the mechanical behavior of cementitious materials, including concrete creep, shrinkage, and fatigue performance. They investigate the microstructure and properties of advanced materials such as polyurethane grout and ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), with an emphasis on internal curing and shrinkage control. Additionally, they explore smart infrastructure systems and multifunctional characterization techniques for cementitious materials. Their work addresses both fundamental material science and practical engineering challenges in construction and transportation.
