Naval University of Engineering Professor Walter Ma Ma Weiming

Naval Engineering University, appears in many of my colleagues and peers, he is a legendary young scientists, but also the extraordinary achievements of the General Academy of bits: 34-year-old professor of exceptional promotion, a 38-year-old PhD supervisor , 41, was elected the youngest of the Chinese Academy of Engineering academician, 42-year-old was promoted the rank of rear admiral, awarded a first … …

he made the world’s first “integrated power” theory, has overcome the constraints of state, military the development of major technical equipment, nearly a thousand difficulties, there are 20 more results for “world first”, “leading.” Walter Ma in the end what unique skills?

Ma Weiming team has been a visiting professor at Tsinghua University, Professor Wang Xiang-heng, first, because Walter Ma to take the lead driving through the formation of an exemplary effect; Then there are his pioneers, the courage to take over a major issue.

Walter Ma often said that many people level is enough, but courage is not big enough.

years to overcome “impossible delusion”

“is not controlled by others, the core technology must be made, otherwise, we will always be tied to the waistband to bring in other people live.”

image of the power system was compared to modern ships, the “heart”, the heart will have a direct impact on the vitality of the submarine. According to public information: since 1902 more than 100 years, the United States, Russia, Britain, France and other countries a total of over 434 naval submarine accident since the larger, in addition to wartime damage, but more than half and power failures.

the past, I mainly rely on the Navy submarine electrical equipment imports, severely restricted construction of naval combat. “To not be controlled by others, the core technology must be made, otherwise, we will always be tied to the waistband to bring in other people live.” Face of foreign technology blockade, Ma Weiming adamant.

ship size, there are strict weight limits, and how in this case to provide high-quality, large-capacity AC-DC power, the Navy has been the world committed to the goal. After feasibility studies, Walter Ma made the world’s first integrated power technology idea that the use of a motor also issued AC and DC power.

also issued with an AC motor, DC two kinds of electricity? At that time, domestic and international motor industry is that it is “impossible delusion.”

However, after years of hard work, Walter Ma, and the creation of multi-phase rectifier three-phase AC generator power while the basic theory, the capture of such key calculation parameters of the electromagnetic motor technology, successfully developed the world’s the first double-winding AC-DC generator system, and obtained national patent.

2002, the AC and DC generator works through the identification of the prototype, full production by the troops. Since then, I have a strong Navy’s new submarines, the “Chinese heart.”

After several rounds of rigorous evaluation of Science and Technology Group study, “double winding generator power supply system” has been officially identified as the 2010 National Science and Technology Progress Award.

“You know, I can teach you for free”

Walter Ma’s character Maverick, and that is respect for science, not fawning, not blind faith in authority.

Walter Ma always told Institute members: Do not fawning, to respect science. Walter Ma on this issue personally.

a decade ago, China imported from a country of a large-scale equipment, a major generator system failure. Ma Weiming team part of the order of a superior officer to the scene to participate in accident identified, and to authorize Walter Ma, chief expert, the Chinese delegation and the foreign delegations in the negotiations.

through on-site investigation, Walter Ma and his old partner Liu Chi quickly gives the conclusion: generator design deficiencies fully responsible for each other.

but the other denied the Chinese conclusions, and accused China of violating procedures. In their delegations in, 8 out of 10 people with the chief architect, chief engineer of the title, they are adamant that China is not generating design drawings, can not refute the evidence put forward in essence, “everything you say, merely subjective it! “

However, Ma Weiming immediately assumed a 10 times larger than the other drawings. Back in the original negotiations, Walter Ma and colleagues after several simulations, has been the core data, and draw the design drawings. “My God, amazing! This paper we design drawings and exactly the same!” A foreign expert could not help but cry to the sound. Nevertheless, they still say: “Your theory bizarre, we do not understand!”

see each other so irrational, Walter Ma responded, “We are talking about science! You do not know, I can teach you ! ‘side of the translation a bit shocked, long time no mouth.

“according to the literal translation!” Walter Ma said, “plus one: I do not charge a cent, free education!”

As colleagues have said, this matter is “put gas “This is in Ma Weiming maverick personality, that is, respect for science, not fawning, not blind faith in authority.

“personnel training must be willing to pay big bucks”

even if it is to spend hundreds of thousands, even millions, of millions of laboratory equipment, as long as the research needs, training needs, even to borrow money also without any hesitation.

Walter Ma led the team of research funding at every turn of millions, but his performance was very “Stingy”: paper and who have an angry, provides that “non of the staff do not get this by printing”; a business trip, able to train not plane, can not take the soft sleeper sleeper seat; not fly non-urgent, not to carry classified information generally does not take the soft sleeper … …

However, personnel training, he was generous it. “Not willing to generous input, it is not great talent train!” Even if it is to spend hundreds of thousands, even millions, of millions of laboratory equipment, as long as the research needs, training needs, even if the loans are without any hesitation.

Institute of Physics Master Zhao Zhihua, after the team transferred to Walter Ma, Ma Weiming voted for him more than 10 million of research funding. However, the first three years, Zhao Zhihua not come up with a topic, not an achievement, no published paper. Some people began to think that this guy could not level, but Walter Ma did not give up.

three years is not Ming, an overnight success. 4th year, Zhao Zhihua published the first papers, immediately caused a sensation in the international arena. Now, Zhao Zhihua has grown to Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory, chief research specialist.

for talent, Walter Ma has his own view: “train the people, I am not anxious to see the success or failure, I want this year you are not exhausted all possible means as long as you worked hard , even if the result is a failure, I still give you high points, with your efforts to give you a fixed post allowance. “

Wang Xiang-heng, Professor at Tsinghua University as a visiting professor during the team’s Walter Ma, have calculated that an account: Since the Academy has elected Walter Ma, the development of talent in billions of dollars spent on. He repeatedly exclaimed, “You train people to really take the original capital ah!”

“I want to scholarship, the officer is not interested in”

“staring reputation, the road of scientific research doomed to go far; staring power, research your door will be excluded. “

the saying goes: good scholar Shi. The point here is not truth in Walter Ma Ling. The late 1990s, Walter Ma is only one-and-coming professor, has not elected as a Fellow. But an understanding of his senior directorate visited the school, they were named to see him. Head told him: “organization to the selection of young cadres as leaders of the school, after inspection, you are important person, if you are willing, ready to appoint you as vice president.” Heads further tests: “The opportunity to draw a line president.”

“I want to concentrate on learning to do, the officer was not interested!” Walter Ma said quietly declined. About the incident, it was said Ma Weiming, “Bushitaiju,” said Walter Ma there is a typical high IQ, “foolish”, hand Gaoguanhoulu are not, you want to pursue?

let the outside world says, Walter Ma are still hard to do his science. As Ma Weiming own a “famous” said, “staring reputation, research is not destined to go far way; looking at power, the door will you research the exclusion.”

the reporter Guo Shaofeng

We are not smarter than others, but hard-working than others. 365 days a year, we have no Sunday, no summer vacation, even for the New Year only one rest day, every day, engaged in basic, top people a year for 3 years.

for some high-tech, many people first have to ask Western countries. Western countries have, we do. No, they think you are crazy, a liar, I Pianbu Xin this evil.
