Chief scientist of "973"; Recipient of the
Outstanding Youth Fund
Prof. Teng Bin (1958-), born in Dalian. He graduated
from Dalian University of Technology and received his
doctorate in 1989. He did his post-doctoral research in
Oxford from December 1990 to January 1993. He was a
specially appointed professor of Dalian University of
Technology under the "Cheung Kong Scholars Programme" by
Ministry of Education from 2001 to 2005. He engaged in
the work of interaction of waves and coastal and
offshore engineering structure. He also had an intensive
study on the interaction of nonlinear waves with
deep-sea structures and dynamic response of marine
structures. He proposed new integral equation for the
wave diffraction and radiation, a fast algorithm for the
second-order velocity potential on the infinite free
surface, and apply this algorithm to calculate the
third-order wave force on axial symmetric bodies. He set
up a two-terms expansion method for simulation of the
large amplitude drift motion of deep water moored
platforms. He developed a frequency-domain and a
time-domain software packages for computing the
nonlinear wave loads on offshore structures and
nonlinear dynamic response of ocean engineering
structures. Prof. Teng is a winner of a National
Outstanding Youth project and the principal investigator
of one key project and a number of normal projects
funded by National Natural Science Foundation. He
published more than 300 papers in the domestic and
oversea journals. He was awarded the second and third

respectively.
Speech Title---Potential Methods for Wave Loads on
Marine Structures
Abstract-Potential theory is widely used for compute
wave loads on large sized structures as its lower cost
comparing with the viscous models. Fully nonlinear model
can be set up based on the nonlinear free surface and
body surface conditions on the exact free surface and
body surface. The free surface and body surfaces are
simulated with the computation by a time marching
method. In practical application the direct simulation
with the fully nonlinearity model is a great
challengeable with the increase of structure scale and
the wave nonlinearity. Thus, simplification must be
applied to develop more efficient and steady models. The
state of the art includes: the fully nonlinear model,
perturbation model, large amplitude model, body exact
model, weakly diffraction model, shallow water model and
Cummins model. In this talk, the development of the
models and their applications will be introduced.

Speech Title---Meshless Method for Violent
Wave-Fluid-Structure Interaction
Abstract-When encountering extreme wave, the
structure may produce elastic vibration and considerable
deformation. In this presentation, an in-house
MPSFEM-SJTU solver based on the fully Lagrangian MPS-FEM
coupled method is proposed to solve the fluid-structure
interaction problems. The coupling MPS-FEM is extended
to a 3-D FSI problems. In fluid-structure interface, the
condition of displacement and force equivalence can be
met. The interaction between rigid-body and elastic
deformation is considered in present work. Interaction
between breaking-dam and moored flexible platform is
numerically studied and present results show good
agreements with previous published data. The slamming of
a floating ship hull is simulated to show the capability
of the coupling method in capturing large free
surface/structure displacement.
The proposed MPS-FEM coupled solver is powerful for
problems of structural deformation induced by violent
free surface flow.

Speech Title---Application of Biosurfactants for Oil
Spill Remediation
Abstract-An evaluation of the management options must
be made for contaminated sites. In particular, various
techniques must be considered for the remediation of
water and sediments when the release of hazardous
materials becomes a serious problem. The options can
include physical, biological, and/or chemical
treatments. Sustainable management options for
contaminated sites are required and will be evaluated.
Selection of the most appropriate remediation
technology must coincide with the environmental
characteristics of the site and the ongoing fate and
transport processes. To be sustainable, the risk to
human health and the environment at the site must be
reduced, and not be transferred to another site.
Cost-effectiveness and sustainable solutions are
significant factors in determining the treatment. The
application of biosurfactants has been evaluated as
alternatives to chemical reagents due to their surface
active and emulsifying properties, low toxicity,
biodegradability, unlimited applicability and relative
low production cost for sustainable remediation. Studies
showed that for effective application of biosurfactants,
they should be selected based on pollutant
characteristics and properties, treatment capacity,
costs, regulatory requirements, and time constraints.
Moreover, understanding of the mechanisms of interaction
between biosurfactants and hydrocarbon contaminants or
the contaminated environment can assist in selection of
the appropriate biosurfactants for sustainable
remediation. This presentation will include research on
various environmental applications of biosurfactants,
particularly for hydrocarbon remediation.
