Structural Engineering
The structural engineering group focuses its research on multiscale modeling and reliability/uncertainty/risk assessment of complex/material systems.
Departmental Research
Faculty and students in the Department of Civl, Environmental, and Ocean Engineering are meeting today’s needs and solving future challenges by generating new knowledge, innovating technologies, and applying them to improve the quality of life of individuals and communities at home and around the world.
Research in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Ocean Engineering
Our research areas are based on a strong foundation of core competencies that mark our education and research programs and support our alumni’s success.
Our research is focused on:
Research Areas
Environmental Engineering
This research explores material surface properties, energetic compounds deactivation and various aspects of soil properties.
Ocean, Coastal and Naval Engineering
This area includes the New York Harbor Observing and Prediction System (NYHOPS) that provides real-time data about the waters of NY/NJ.
Acoustics
Research centered on the study and application of the nonlinear interaction of acoustic and vibrational energy in various media and materials.
