Visit of Prof Chen Yongqi (1995)


Another big name who has visited Faculty of Surveying and Cimes in particular is Prof Chen Yongqi. Dr Chen is from LSGI Dept Hong Kong Polytechnic University. I have the opportunity working together with Dr Chen at UNB as a team on deformation analysis under the directive of Dr Chrzanowski. At the time of Dr Chen visit he was Chairman of Commission 6 of FIG (the commission on Engineering Survey).

Dr Chen is the author of a famous technical report on deformation analysis "The Generalized Approach on analysis of deformation". It was published as Technical Report 94 of UNB Dept of SE publication way back in 1983.
