Biography

Zhong Wanxie, male, Han nationality, was born in Shanghai and is a native of Deqing, Zhejiang Province. He graduated from Tongji University in 1956.

Zhong discovered certain structure forms, which resulted in the instability of submarine pressure-tight bits and column bond shells. In the early 1970s, along with his research team, Zhong researched and manufactured several engineering application software based on group theory and chaired the research and manufacture of the large scale 3-dimensional finite element system.

Zhong also proposed a structure optimum algorithm and DDDU program system based on the sequence quadratic programming and advanced the new upper limit and low limit theorem of structure limit analysis. He later brought forward the parameter variable variance principle and related parameter viable quadratic programming algorithm applied to elastic deformation and plastic deformations and contact problems. As one of the founders of the development of computational mechanics in China, Zhong discovered the structural mechanics and optimized control phase simulations, which created the methodology of solving new system, and precision integrates in elastic mechanics.

Zhong Wanxie is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
