Resilient structures
Applied Geotechnologies Research Group
The Applied Geotechnologies Research Group focuses on the development and application of advanced technologies for the analysis, monitoring and management of civil engineering infrastructure and the built environment.
Mission
A central objective of the group is to improve the assessment and maintenance of existing infrastructure, particularly transport systems, through innovative methodologies that enable more accurate diagnosis and informed decision-making.
Expertise
The group combines expertise in geomatics, structural engineering and data analysis to address complex challenges related to infrastructure performance, safety and resilience. Its research integrates techniques such as 3D data acquisition, remote sensing, digital modelling and artificial intelligence.
Resilient Structures Chair
RESILIENT STRUCTURES is a research team established within the framework of the Research Center in Technologies, Energy and Industry (CINTECX), as part of the Applied Geotechnologies Group (GeoTech) at the University of Vigo.
The team focuses on advancing knowledge in infrastructure resilience through the integration of monitoring technologies, data-driven methods and engineering modelling, addressing current challenges in the assessment and management of civil infrastructure systems.
