Xingjian Wang ’19G: Optimizing concrete construction
Xingjian Wang ’19G planned to finish out his master’s degree in structural engineering at Lehigh and go into industry. But with one semester left, he changed the course of his life.
“I had learned the basics of doing numerical simulations and using finite element software to analyze structures,” says Wang, “but I realized I wanted to go deeper and understand how techniques like those actually worked.”
Saluting one of ChBE's own
Meet Doug Hardy. Father of two - Jonathan (8) and Caroline (5). Nine years ago, one would find him serving in the United States Marine Corps., working as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) technician. His job then was to locate, identify, render safe, and dispose of explosive hazards such as foreign and domestic unexploded ordnance (UXO), chemical/biological weapons, high-yield explosives, Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), and Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) that presented a threat to operations, installations, personnel, or material.
