Amanda Bao, an assistant professor in the College of Applied Science and Technology’s civil engineering technology/environmental management and safety program, was one of several faculty who presented work-in-progress at the Research Seed Funding in Action event hosted by Sponsored Research Services on Sept. 27. She discussed her research about dynamic soil-structure interaction on bridges to facilitate sustainable design. Her studies will help determine bridge structural capabilities subject to seismic loads, blasts and strong winds.
