- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $500,000 to Carnegie Mellon University from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028 to support research on modeling the impacts of cascading disruptions to transportation infrastructure and services. The objective is to develop a framework for estimating, predicting, and managing traffic flow during extreme events that disrupt critical infrastructure components. The research will leverage...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $350,000 to Carnegie Mellon University to explore and demonstrate an alternative model of rail transit development that revitalizes underutilized "legacy" rail through partnerships. The project aims to overcome barriers that inflate revitalization costs by combining modular rail technology, onboard sensing, new regulatory pathways, and grassroots planning. The one-year...
- This $320,091 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a collaborative research effort between Central Michigan University and the University of Northern Colorado. The project aims to develop and evaluate a short-term, immersive field experience called the Student Training for Observational Research in Meteorology (STORM) program. This one-week experience is designed to engage undergraduate students at risk of attrition from...
- This $3,000,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Traineeship (NRT) Program award, under CFDA 47.076 STEM Education, will establish the Climate Action and Resilience for Extreme Urban Heat (CLIMATE-CARE) program at the University of Pennsylvania. The project aims to train 36 doctoral and 20 master's students in convergent research and education related to sustainability design and engineering, with a focus on utilizing advanced materials and eco-additive manufacturing techniques to...
- This $500,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will work with California coastal communities to produce research and adaptation strategies that address resiliency in the face of increasing coastal flooding, storm intensity, and storm frequency. The University of California, Berkeley will lead the project, which aims to: 1) develop scenarios for future shorelines, 2) identify knowledge gaps, and 3) evaluate technical assistance tools and...
