Resilient and Intelligent Infrastructure Systems (RIIS)

TOWARDS PRODUCTIVE, CONNECTED, SUSTAINABLE AND
SMART INFRASTRUCTURE

RIIS is an industry and ARC funded research and innovation hub for smart infrastructure. It engages with industry, government, and the community to develop and implement science-based policy and integrated practical solutions to the current and future challenges facing Australia’s urban, resource and energy infrastructure.

Our research the RIIS has the potential to transform advanced manufacturing, service and infrastructure engineering in Australia focussing on five main themes.

THEME 1: UBIQUITOUS SENSING, INTELLIGENT AND ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS

THEME 2: DATA COLLECTION, SECURITY, AND INTEGRATION

THEME 3: MODELLING, SIMULATIONS AND PROGNOSTICS

THEME 4: INFRASTRUCTURE HEALTH MONITORING AND PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE

THEME 5: SPATIAL DATA INFRASTRUCTURES, DIGITAL TWIN AND DECISION SUPPORT
