Prof. Wai-Meng Quach (Stephen) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at the University of Macau, and an Associate Editor for “Advances in Structural Engineering – An International Journal”. He is also an Expert (Structural Engineering) in the National Science and Technology Programs Expert Database, China. He was the Head of the CEE Department at the University of Macau (2013-2016), the founding Chairman of Executive Board of the Macau Society of Metal Structures (MSMS, 2007-2010), and the Honorary Advisor of the Macau Construction Association (MCA, 2008-2010).

   His research interests include steel/stainless steel structures, cold-formed metal structures, 3D printing in construction, residual stresses, cold-forming effect, steel fabrication, and structural repair. He has been the principal investigator (PI) of some internal and external research projects funded by the Fundo para o Desenvolvimento das Ciências e da Tecnologia (FDCT) of Macao S.A.R, the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) of the Malaysia Ministry of Education, and the Southern Marine Science and Engineering Guangdong Laboratory. Findings from these projects already led to the publication of two proceedings and over 60 papers in journals and conferences. His total citations: over 1000. The highest citations of a single paper: over 200. Impactio Academic Ranking** : Top 0.01% in Structural Engineering, Top 0.03% in Materials Science, & Composite Material, respectively.

郭偉明，澳門大學土木與環境工程系副教授，博士生導師，國際期刊《Advances in Structural Engineering》副主編，以及中國國家科技計劃專家庫– 專家(結構工程)。從2013-2016年間，擔任澳門大學土木工程與環境工程系系主任，也曾任澳門金屬結構學會創會理事長(2007-2010)。在擔任系系主任期間(2013-2016)，他領導工程系建立了一個健全的學術品質體系，以提高課程品質。在2016年，還帶領工程系為土木專業本科課程取得香港工程師學會的工程專業課程認證，同時獲得《華盛頓協議》的認可^。郭教授是鋼結構、不銹鋼結構、和殘餘應力方面的專家，尤其針對由冷成形過程所引致的幾何缺陷、殘餘應力和冷作硬化效應對鋼結構性能的影響作深入研究。其研究領域還涉及：鋼構材三維列印技術，金屬材料應力應變行為，鋼結構連接頭的力學特性，提出先進數值模型及理論模型類比冷彎鋼構件(鋼管、鋼槽)生產過程，以及測量模擬殘餘應力和幾何缺陷。作為項目負責人，先後主持澳門科學技術發展基金及國內外(包括：馬來西亞教育部基礎研究基金項目、廣東省實驗室重大專項團隊項目)等11項課題。在相關領域發表60餘篇期刊及會議論文，總引用超過1000次，單篇最高引用超過200次 (Impactio Academic Ranking** : Top 0.01% in Structural Engineering, Top 0.03% in Materials Science, & Composite Material, respectively)。由於對他在不銹鋼結構方面的專門知識被同業的認同，他受到英國鋼鐵建築學會 (SCI) 的邀請, 在2012年的國際專家研討會(4th International Experts Seminar)上作專家報告。
