Realistic stochastic modelling for measurements is one of the fundamental and challenging issues in a wide range of scientific problems. This project aims to develop and test an innovative stochastic modelling methodology for high precision GPS positioning applications. The new stochastic modelling methodology will significantly improve the accuracy and reliability of satellite positioning results. The expected outcomes are: (1) new knowledge about the statistical characteristics of satellite measurements; (2) development of a new error analysis framework; and (3) development of computationally efficient data processing algorithms to support high precision GPS positioning applications.Read moreRead less
A new approach to structural design that incorporates the effect of non-structural components. The construction industry is a significant contributor to the Australian economy. Each year billions of dollars are spent erecting new high rise buildings. Further, Australian engineering firms bid on major construction projects throughout the world, particularly in Asia and the Middle East. The research described here promises to deliver economies to the Australian construction industry as well as e ....A new approach to structural design that incorporates the effect of non-structural components. The construction industry is a significant contributor to the Australian economy. Each year billions of dollars are spent erecting new high rise buildings. Further, Australian engineering firms bid on major construction projects throughout the world, particularly in Asia and the Middle East. The research described here promises to deliver economies to the Australian construction industry as well as equipping local firms involved in structural design to better compete for offshore work .
Community benefits will take the form of reduced construction costs and the capacity for a more complete and up to date knowledge of the structural performance and risk of aging assets, thereby increasing community confidence and safety.Read moreRead less
