- This $257,914 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), will develop a national cyberinfrastructure called the Human Dynamics and Resilience Infrastructure (HNDS-I) to advance disaster resilience research. The key products and services to be delivered include: Developing four new integrated databases from sources like social media and cell-phone mobility data...
- This $555,778 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research on understanding how compound flood mechanisms influence decision-making about shoreline adaptation in multi-jurisdictional governance systems and how those decisions modify future flood risk patterns in coastal communities. The project, titled "CAREER: INTEGRATED MODELING OF FLOOD INTERDEPENDENCIES AND ADAPTATION RESPONSES TO EVALUATE PATHWAYS FOR COASTAL...
- This $1,994,481 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under its STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program supports the development of a transformative graduate training program at Portland State University (PSU) to address cascading impacts of extreme events and geohazards across scales. The five-year project, running from September 2024 to August 2029, will train 22 NSF-funded graduate students and an additional 100 students in a transdisciplinary curriculum using a...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $568,493 will support research at Northwestern University from April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2027 under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The research will develop a comprehensive theoretical framework for analyzing rare catastrophic events driven by heavy-tailed distributions, which can model disparate phenomena like pandemics, blackouts, and financial crises. The framework will extend techniques in extreme value theory, optimization,...
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $100,000 supports research at Purdue University from September 2022 to August 2025 under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The research aims to strengthen community resilience to natural hazards like earthquakes by incorporating stakeholder priorities into risk mitigation efforts. Specifically, the university will conduct social and physical experiments to better understand vulnerability of pre-1970s concrete buildings and evaluate community...
- This $757,974 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research by The Pennsylvania State University, doing business as Penn State, to develop a systems modeling framework for designing climate-resilient levee infrastructure that supports equitable, resilient, and sustainable floodplain communities. The project aims to address interactions between levee network performance, future climates, natural infrastructure, and behavioral...
- This $170,942 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) supports the development of a national cyberinfrastructure called the Human Dynamics and Resilience Infrastructure (HNDS-I) to advance disaster resilience research. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year grant include: Creating four new integrated databases containing nationwide data from...
This $999,944 National Science Foundation project grant supports the development of a new paradigm for equitable and smart multi-hazard resilience modeling called ENSURE at Rice University from March 2023 through February 2028. The grant aims to advance infrastructure resilience modeling to account for uncertain and evolving conditions while overcoming inequities in underlying data and algorithms. Key products include infusing intelligence from emerging smart systems and data into resilience modeling, uncovering and addressing biases, designing benchmark studies across hazards and scales, facilitating community-engaged learning with diverse partners, and establishing a virtual community of practice to support female faculty in the field. The project aligns with the goals of the National Science Foundation Engineering program to improve engineering research and education and foster innovation for economic and societal benefit.
