Institution |
IST-ID is a private not-for-profit institution,
which primarily aims at carrying out Science and Technology activities,
fostering knowledge transfer and promoting the involvement of national and
foreign researchers, internally and externally. IST-ID carries out RD&I
activities in fundamental and applied areas associated with major societal
challenges, including Basic Sciences, Information and Communication
Technologies, Energy, Environment, Mobility, Applied Life Sciences,
Materials, Nanotechnologies and Nanosciences, Technology and
Entrepreneurship, Manufacturing Technologies, Nuclear Reactors and
Accelerators, Nuclear Safety and Radiological Protection. |
Research Center |
CERIS is a R&D unit, hosted by IST-ID and
the only one for Civil Engineering with Excellent in the 2015-18 last
evaluation by FCT, aimed at creating and disseminating scientific knowledge
and promoting innovation through the active involvement in fundamental and
applied research for the built and natural environment sector, namely in the
following areas: Hydraulics; Environment and Water Resources; Systems and
Management; Transportation Systems; Studies on Construction; Structures and
Geotechnics. To better achieve the objectives, these areas joined synergies
in four thematic strands: Product Development in Civil Engineering
Industries; Risk and Safety in Built and Natural Environments; Rehabilitation
of Built and Natural Environments; Response to Natural and Societal Changes. |
Research Group |
Founded
in 2008, the Composites Research Group (CORE Group) is a research
group of CERIS research unit of Instituto Superior Técnico, University of
Lisbon. We perform fundamental and applied research, development, and
teaching activities on advanced fibre-polymer composite systems for civil
engineering applications. The
main research areas of the CORE group are the mechanical behaviour,
connection technology, long-term performance, durability, fire behaviour and
sustainability of fibre-polymer composite systems, including profiles,
sandwich structures, strengthening systems and reinforcing bars. |
