Research themes

Intelligent sensing and internet of things

Our research merges sensor technology, connectivity and data analytics to create smart, interconnected systems. We design networks of sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) devices that monitor infrastructure and the environment in real time, converting raw data into actionable intelligence.

Infrastructure and smart cities

Resiliet infrastructure and smart cities focuses on creating sustainable, resilient urban environments through innovation in infrastructure design and technology. This theme addresses how we build and manage cities to withstand climate impacts while improving liveability.

Water environment and climate adaptation

Our research safeguards ecosystems and prepares communities for climate change. It includes developing advanced water treatment and recycling technologies to ensure sustainable water supplies, as well as innovative methods for monitoring environmental health and remediating pollution.

Materials and nanotechnology

Materials and nanotechnology explores the design and engineering of novel materials – from the nanoscale building blocks to bulk composites – to unlock new capabilities for technology and infrastructure. Our researchers push the frontiers of material science, creating substances with tailored structures and extraordinary properties

Research centres and institutions

Centre for Advanced Structural Engineering

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