Smart Infrastructure
Smart Infrastructure develops solutions to enhance sustainability and resilience of built environments. To innovate design and operation of infrastructures, we develop state-of-the-art materials and numerical models and build data-driven, risk-based and automated tools. Our systems of interest traverse a wide range of scales that include materials, structural components, bridges, buildings and infrastructure systems.
To tackle far-reaching implications of Smart Infrastructure, we recognise the importance of interdisciplinary efforts. Our team consists of diverse yet closely connected disciplines, including digital twins, structural health monitoring, mechanics for performance-based design, data analytics and structural and system reliability engineering. We also team up with various industrial and governmental partners in the sectors of reinsurance, construction, railways and software development.
