Complex Infrastructure Systems

Multi-Layer Network Bottom

Mission

Research in our group aims to deliver the transformative new science and sophisticated computational and mathematical approaches required to turn data on complex infrastructure systems into actionable insights. We explore this question using mixed methods research, including operational research, computational research, network science, dynamic systems, spatial statistics, scalable data analytics, and machine learning. Our research is centered around three themes: Systems of Systems, Network Science, and Uncertainty Quantification.

System-level Infrastructure Resilience

The aim of this project is to collaborate with industry partners to develop comprehensive, system-level approaches for evaluating the resilience of large-scale infrastructure systems to climate change hazards. This is an urgent need as current industrial practices primarily utilize asset-level performance indicators to make crucial systemwide…

Electricity Networks in Sub-Saharan Africa

Half a billion people in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) lack access to electricity. Infrastructure investments of USD 22 billion annually are required to provide universal access to affordable electricity. Hence, information about the existing, planned, and necessary electricity infrastructure is crucial to ensure sustainable investments and support…
