Representatives of SPbGASU at the conference
The 25th annual conference on tunneling and underground construction was held in Hefei, China, on October 25–26.
SPbGASU was represented by Rashid Mangushev, Academic Director of the Scientific and Pedagogical School, Director of the Scientific, Production and Consulting Center for Geotechnology at SPbGASU, Honored Scientist of Russia, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Sciences, Doctor of Engineering, Professor of the Department of Geotechnics, and Anatoly Osokin, Head of the Department of Geotechnics, Honored Builder of Russia, Candidate of Engineering Sciences, Associate Professor.
Representatives from SPbGASU presented reports on the developments of scientists from the Department of Geotechnics, which address challenges arising during underground work during the construction of unique building foundations and in metro construction. The reports sparked interest among our Chinese colleagues.
During the conference, representatives of the Russian Engineering Academy and the China Tunnel Association signed a cooperation agreement to exchange educational programs and conduct joint scientific research in the field of underground construction and tunneling.
During the negotiations, Russian and Chinese colleagues agreed on the possibility of educational exchanges for postgraduate and master's students in their respective fields.
"We are confident that educational exchanges for students, master's students, and postgraduates, joint scientific and technical conferences on underground construction in complex soil conditions, and collaboration in geotechnical research will enable us to reach a new level of subsurface development and new geotechnical discoveries in design, calculation, and technology," said Rashid Mangushev. "We hope that the collaboration initiated during our attendance at the anniversary conference will continue."
