Dr. Weina Meng received her Ph.D. degree from the Missouri University of Science and Technology in July 2017. Since she joined the Stevens Institute of Technology as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in August 2018, she published 50 papers in top journals in the field of advanced cement, won four research grants, including an NSF CAREER award, assembled a functioning group of four talented Ph.D. students, set up a new laboratory – the Advanced Concrete Technology Laboratory, earned the “2020 Educator of the Year” Award by the ASCE New Jersey Section. Her research topics include development, multi-scale characterization and modeling, optimization of the manufacturing process, and structural application of novel, low-carbon cementitious composites. She serves on multiple committees of the American Concrete Institute (ACI), such as ACI 236 Materials Science, 239 Ultra-high-performance Concrete, and 241 Nanotechnology of Concrete. She is devoted to developing cement-based composite to improve the safety, resilience, and sustainability of civil infrastructure. She is a co-editor of a book: “Nanotechnology for Civil Infrastructure Innovation and Eco-Efficiency of Nanostructured Cement-Based Materials”, a reviewer of more than 15 journals related to cement-based materials, and a co-organizer of two international conferences.
