	Tomorrow's Cities University College London Funder: UK Research and Innovation Work focused on the development of metrics to quantify the resilience of vulnerable communities, with direct involvement of the stakeholders. Development of a framework for multihazard analysis accounting for interactions among the hazard occurrences and their consequences. Development of a methodology for flood vulnerability assessment of typical households of the global south.
	Installation Technology Transition Program University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Funder: US Army Corps of Engineers Work focused on developing a framework for quantifying the reliability and resilience of infrastructure over time.
	NIST-Funded Community Resilience Center of Excellence University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Funder: National Institute for Standards and Technology Work focused on developing metrics and tools to help local governments decide how to invest resources intended to lessen the impact of hazards on buildings and infrastructure systems and how to recover rapidly and minimise community disruption.
	TWP-11 Project on Train Derailments University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Funder: Association of American Railroads and Railway Supply Institute Work investigating the release of hazardous materials following the derailment of cargo trains, using advanced Finite Element Models to simulate derailments.
