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.
