Project Grant 2530559
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation awarded a $274,573 Project Grant to the University of Alabama Office for Sponsored Programs Division under CFDA Program #47.041 Engineering. The award, which runs from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2028, will fund research to develop a resilience assessment framework that tracks the accumulated costs of nuisance floods as an indicator of sea-level rise. The project aims to use this information to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $200,000 to the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. to conduct fundamental research on the behavior of manufactured homes under hurricane-level wind loads. The primary objectives are to: Transport and fully test three manufactured homes at the Florida International University campus to generate critical data on the initiation and propagation of wind damage in these...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) is funding a collaborative research project between the University of Texas at Arlington and Chapman University to advance the understanding of home mitigation strategies that can reduce damage to coastal households from hurricane wind, wave, and surge hazards. The $133,453 award, which runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, will develop and evaluate a multi-level interdisciplinary...
- This $250,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Louisiana State University Agricultural Center (LSU AgCenter) for the "REDDDOT PHASE 2: CLIMATE-INFORMED FLOOD RISK MITIGATION SANDBOX" project. The project aims to develop and implement an innovative, interactive flood mitigation software application platform that allows stakeholders to explore, simulate, and evaluate current and future floodplain ordinance impacts on...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $250,000 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) located in Socorro, New Mexico. The goal of this 3-year project is to develop advanced AI-driven tools to help communities and policymakers across the U.S. better understand local risks and plan for resilience to extreme weather events such as droughts, wildfires, flash floods, and...
- This $245,799 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to San Diego State University Foundation to support the "CAREER: HARNESSING HETEROGENEOUS SOURCES OF DATA AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR INFORMED FLOOD MANAGEMENT" research project. The project aims to advance scientific understanding of urban and coastal flooding and establish a new generation of intelligent flood early warning systems and smart flood...
- This Project Grant award of $528,090 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research on housing infrastructure adaptation in coastal communities exposed to natural hazards in a changing climate. The project, titled "CLIMA/COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: RIDERS ON THE STORM: CLIMATE ADAPTATION OF HOUSING INFRASTRUCTURE FOR RESILIENT COMMUNITIES IN COASTAL CITIES," aims to develop a mathematical framework to analyze the interactions between...
- This $473,305 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), supports collaborative research to advance the understanding of structural mitigation approaches for reducing hurricane-induced damage to coastal homes. The research will examine the effectiveness of home retrofits in protecting against simultaneous wind, wave, and surge hazards, as well as homeowner preferences and biases in selecting retrofit strategies based on risk...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), supports research on climate adaptation of housing infrastructure in coastal communities. The $171,674 award to The Johns Hopkins University will develop a novel mathematical framework to analyze interactions between human behavior, built environments, and natural hazards in order to identify pathways for communities to become more resilient to climate change. The project aims...
- This $150,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at Texas A&M University examining decision-making around evolving coastal flood risks. The grantee will develop an integrated framework combining risk modeling, economic sorting models, and social behavior models to understand how residential location choices are impacted by changing flood conditions and flood control infrastructure investments. This will quantify changes in...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $300,000.00 to Mississippi State University to develop a new risk assessment and housing planning tool for rural communities in the Mississippi Delta and Gulf Coast regions. The project aims to help local decision-makers and public workers assess housing vulnerabilities, explore adaptation strategies, and prioritize investments that protect lives and improve affordability in the face of growing risks from flooding, hurricanes, and other natural hazards. The research leverages geo-sensing, artificial intelligence, participatory methods, systems engineering, and educational outreach to advance understanding of risk and deliver an integrated, multi-scale decision-support platform. This platform combines AI-driven building risk detection, agent-based modeling, and community-defined priorities to guide rural housing resilience strategies. The project also contributes to STEM education through hands-on experiences, exhibits, and design workshops for K-6 students in rural areas.
