Infrastructure and transport

We possess outstanding expertise in the fields of materials characterisation and processing, computer simulation, nanotechnology, advanced manufacturing, solid mechanics and biotechnology.

We are promoting the advancement of structural engineering within Australia through research and development, cooperation with industry and education in contemporary structural technology.

We are at the forefront of research in geomechanics and granular physics, and aim to broaden our world-leading position in fields such as mining geomechanics and bulk material handling.

We tackle fundamental challenges in aerospace engineering, from advanced composite structures, hybrid propulsion systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and new control algorithms to complete satellite systems.

We lead the design and development of next-generation nanomaterials, high-performance building structures and advanced manufacturing technologies. We explore the frontiers of materials synthesis and structural design.
