Shengzhe (Jackson) Wang works at the confluence of water and the built environment to pioneer creative structural systems that enhance the resiliency of future cities against natural hazards exacerbated by a changing climate. Through this interdisciplinary perspective, his research explores the interaction between extreme hydrodynamic events with onshore, offshore, and floating structures; architecture and nature-inspired solutions to coastal resilience; and the geometric mechanics of thin-shell structures across different scales and fields of application.
