Research Thrusts
The Metis Center is supported by several research initiatives and laboratories
Resilient Infrastructure Laboratory
Arizona State University’s Resilient Infrastructure Laboratory is focused on developing insights and solutions to ensure that infrastructure deliver services, protect people, and adapt into the future. Focus areas include climate change adaptation, agile and flexible design, infrastructure interdependencies, and security. The laboratory is managed by Prof. Mikhail Chester and research projects are led by faculty and students across the university.

Transportation Life Cycle Assessment Laboratory
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has emerged as a critical systems-oriented assessment framework for understanding the complexity, interdependencies, and impacts of infrastructure systems. In transportation, the framework is now routinely used to assess the energy and environmental performance of transportation systems, emerging technologies, changing behaviors, and emerging fuels.
