Student research opportunities

The Centre for Built Infrastructure Resilience (CBIR) seeks students interested in addressing the following main focus areas:

  • use of smart materials for control of civil engineering structures
  • damage detection in civil engineering structures using modal data and artificial neural Networks
  • earthquake engineering
  • new technologies to facilitate the cost-effective management of highway bridge assets
  • innovative engineered timber buildings
  • investigation of appropriate technologies to improve seismic resistance of mudbrick housing
  • development of new-generation autoclaved fibre-cement building materials using waste fired clay products
  • ‘Green Cement’: the development of eco-friendly, novel construction material.

Students will undertake collaborative research and development projects with industry and forming partnerships with leading Australian and international research organisations for maximum impact.
