Research Grant

Researchers Hao Prof Hong; Dr Tianli Huang; Prof Weixin Ren

Brief description Bridge damage in an earthquake prevents rescue personnel and equipment from quick access to the affected area. Repairing or replacing a damaged bridge and the increased commuting time after the earthquake may have a significant impact on the economy and life of the general public. This project will develop techniques for earthquake-resistant bridge design.
