Research Team partnered with U.S. Federal Agencies to Reinforce American Dams and Levees
Professors Bennett, Lequesne, and Li partnered with U.S. federal agencies in a push to reinforce American dams and levees nationwide using fiber-reinforced polymers, sensors, artificial intelligence and drones. Some of the work for the $7.7 million, five-year project will take place at three KU labs: the West Campus Structural Testing Facility, the Learned Hall Structural Engineering Testing Laboratory and the Lutz Fracture and Fatigue Laboratory.
