Research projects co-sponsored by the Center for Transportation Infrastructure and Safety advance the body of knowledge in the following areas:
- Development, understanding, manufacturing, and use of new, more durable construction materials and NDT methods.
- Installation processes and engineering design.
- Monitoring and evaluating new and repaired structures.
- Standardization and code approval of products and design protocols.
- Development and deployment of infrastructure for a hydrogen economy.
- Modeling of high-pressure composite cylinders.
- NDE modalities for hydrogen transportation systems.
- Statistically validated codes and standards for critical hydrogen transportation infrastructure systems.
- Safety of hydrogen-powered vehicles and the infrastructure supporting them.
