What is the former residence of Qian Weichang, the father of modern Chinese mechanics?

Qian Weichang's former residence is called Huaihai Yizhuang, there is a river in front of the door, and the old residence has been burned twice in the last century, and then restored to restore the former appearance.

Qian Weichang was born in 1912 in Qifangqiao Village, Hongsheng Township, Wuxi County, Jiangsu Province (now part of Hongshan Street, Wuxi), and his ancestral house in his hometown was burned to ruins due to the Qian family fire in the last century, and only 20 square meters of the old site remained. The former residence built now restores the old appearance of the Qian family in the past, the style is simple, covers an area of about 5,400 square meters, the museum collects the historical information and living utensils related to Qian Mu and Qian Weichang's life, and the overall building is blue bricks and tiles, and the water pavilion is a platform and a water pavilion, which has the flavor of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. According to *** reports, on May 15, 2012, the former residence of Qian Mu and Qian Weichang was completed and opened in Hongshan Street, Wuxi, Jiangsu.

Qian Weichang, the father of modern mechanics, has a white wall on the outside, and the house is paved with black tiles, there are still a lot of such houses in the south of the Yangtze River, there is a stone tablet at the gate of the house, and there are many calligraphy and paintings in the house when you walk in from the gate, and I still like Qian Weichang's former residence very much.

Qian Weichang's former residence is at No. 15 Hubei Road, Tianjin, a three-story townhouse. The eaves of the building are very beautiful, and it has the special architectural style of the concession. The whole family lived together and had a great time.

Qian Weichang is a native of Ehu Town, WuxiEhu Town is located in the southeast of Xishan District, one of the urban groups, and the border with Changshu City, Suzhou. The total area of the town is square kilometers, and the cultivated area is 25,732 acres. The town of Goose Lake is beautiful and beautifulKnown".Jiangnan water town and cultural ancient town".

Qian Weichang. The decision to abandon literature and reason was made after the outbreak of the 918 Incident. The country was in crisis, and Qian Weichang decided to start from science to save the country from danger.

Learning Experience

It took a lot of courage for Qian Weichang to make this decision, because although he is from Tsinghua University.

The high-achieving students who were admitted to the school had full marks in Chinese and history, but he really couldn't get his science results, with a total of 20 points in mathematics and chemistry, 5 points in physics, and no point in English.

But in order to save the country through science, he transferred to the physics department and started from scratch. After four years,Qian Weichang has changed from a student who can only score 5 points in physics to an outstanding graduate of the Department of Physics of Tsinghua University.

In order to learn more advanced technologies, he also followed von Kármán, the father of the world's missiles.

In-depth study, experimentation, and scientific research.

Return to the home country to serve

Even though Qian Weichang's scientific research career was smooth sailing in foreign countries, he still resolutely chose to return to China to serve. Because his initial goal of abandoning literature and science was to serve the motherland and contribute to the scientific development of the motherland.

Make a contribution. Qian Weichang graduated from Tsinghua University, studied abroad, and finally returned to China to teach. Because there were not many scientific and technological talents in my country at that timeQian Weichang has almost covered the applied mechanics of Tsinghua University and Peking University, and has cultivated a large number of physics talents for China.

In addition, Qian Weichang is in applied mathematics.

He has also made great contributions to education, and has taught batches of scientific research talents.

Dedication to the country

I don't have a major, the needs of the country are my major", this is a sentence that Qian Weichang once said. Even though he had perfect marks in liberal arts and almost no knowledge of science, because the country needed talents in science, he resolutely left behind literature that could easily bring him success and devoted himself to scientific research.

The thoughts of patriots always put the country firstThey sharpen themselves into what kind of people the country needs.

The country needs soldiers, so the people pack themselves up and send them to the army, and the country needs scientific and technological talents, so students will put their learning direction into science and technology. It is precisely because of these patriots that our country can usher in the dawn of peace and prosperity.

Because he saw China's backwardness, in order to improve China's influence in the world, he resolutely decided to abandon literature and follow reason.

Because he believed that studying literature could not change China, he studied science. He has made outstanding contributions to the scientific cause of our country.

At that time, it was also affected, because the domestic level of science and technology was relatively low, and he wanted to change the country, so he abandoned literature and reason.

Because his English score was very poor, he only scored a dozen points in the exam, and he chose to study science as a last resort.

In the spring of 1942, Qian Weichang came to the California Institute of Technology from Canada to work at the Institute of Jet Propulsion Technology led by the famous physicist von Kármen. Under the guidance of Feng and Carmen, Qian Weichang's scientific research level improved rapidly.

In a few years, he wrote 12 new articles in the quarterly journal Applied Mathematics in the United States. The international mechanics community considers this to be a fruitful and pioneering work in applying tensor analysis to elastic plate and shell problems. The system of nonlinear differential equations of shallow shell theory proposed in this work is known as the "Qian Weichang equation" in Chongpengdong.

This series of research results has established Qian Weichang's position in the world mechanics community.
