Welcome to EIG

The Engineering Informatics Group (EIG) conducts interdisciplinary research focusing on the application of advanced computing, information and communication technologies to engineering.

Current Research Activities:
  • Computational Engineering: Research in this area involves the development of software infrastructure for engineering simulation and analysis programs. Of particular interests are algorithms and software architectures for parallel, distributed and high performance computers.

  • Distributed Engineering Services: Research in this area involves the utilization of fast speed communication network, Internet and wireless technologies for collaborative engineering computing. Investigation also includes product and process modeling and workflow management.

  • Engineering Information Management: Research in this area focuses on developing techniques to facilitate the organization, management and retrieval of engineering data, information and knowledge. Of particular interests are the management and exchange of project, product and process data. Engineering documents that are of interests include design codes, governmental regulations and legal information. Research investigations range from document parsing and translations, information retrieval, data mining and knowledge discovery, product and process information exchange standards.

  • Sensing, Monitoring, Control and Structural Dynamics: Current research and development in this area include the development of a wireless modular integrated sensing system for structural health monitoring, market-based distributed control strategy, statistical-based damage detection methods, efficient solution methods for generalized, quadratic and perturbed eigenvalue problems.
