Yongfeng QU is a Research and Development engineer who received his double M.S in fluid mechanics and solid mechanics from the University of Paris VI in 2008. From 2008 to 2011, he held a PhD scholarship in environmental science and technology from the University of Paris-Est / Ecole des Ponts ParisTech. His main areas of expertise are environmental fluid mechanics, and his research focuses on numerical modeling of surface energy balance and on full-scale field experiment in the urban areas, including outdoor thermal comfort, air pollutant dispersion, infrared temperature measurement, etc. He has published more than 20 papers on these topics in international journals with peer review and in the proceedings of international conferences. He is a reviewer for serval international ISI journals in numerical environmental modeling and wind engineering. He received several international awards, including the Best-Poster Awards for young researchers at the 13th international conferences on Harmonisation within Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling for Regulatory Purposes (2010), the Best-Paper Awards for young researchers at the 31st NATO/SPS International Technical Meeting on Air Pollution Modelling and its Application (2010) and Research Prize for young researchers at the conferences of La modelisation des flux au service de l'amenagement urbain (2012).
