He led the research and development of China's first "Ship Three Redundant (DP3) Dynamic Positioning System", which won the first prize of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Progress Award in 2022, ranking first. He solved the problem of "bottleneck" in the dynamic positioning system, a key equipment for marine special operations in China's ships and marine engineering, and achieved good economic and social benefits. He led the development of the first international numerical water tank virtual experimental system that integrates physical experimental databases and parallel computing, solving the problem of "bottleneck" in China's industrial software for precise calculation and simulation of ship hydrodynamic performance, and providing an integrated solution for precise calculation and simulation of water hydrodynamic performance in ship and ocean engineering design, trial navigation, and operation. At present, he has led the research on ship digital twin systems and made gratifying progress.
