The project is called "Research on High Temperature Explosion Mechanism and Mechanical Property Degradation Law of Hybrid Fiber Self Compacting Concrete Tunnel Segments". The gratitude content of the 8 related papers mentioned that the relevant research has been supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (51908247) and the Open Project of the Jiangsu Provincial Key Laboratory for Environmental Disaster and Structural Reliability in Civil Engineering (KFJJ202007).

The reply letter of Jiangnan University said that the university learned of the above academic misconduct on April 17, 2023. The university received a letter from the National Natural Science Foundation of China on the suspicion of scientific misconduct in four papers that marked the Young Scientists Fund project funded by Zhang Cong, and then launched an investigation.
