FLAME is not merely meant for soft skilling or education pertinent to Humanities, Social Sciences, Business, Policy alone, here is an example of some serious applied system thinking, and complex system analysis that we have embarked on. 1.

Digital infrastructure created under SmartCitiesMission (SCM) is expected to generate and use large volumes of data from varied digital sources. It is thus necessary that a robust system should be put in place to protect digital platforms from #cyberattack and to ensure that sensitive public and private data is adequately protected and safeguarded REF: https://lnkd.in/def-cwiG Kudos to Khushi Shah for being brave and bold to have chosen (unlike many among her cohort) the 'road not taken' to co-investigate #cyberresiliency of ICCCs in Smart Cities. Wishing her good luck, while looking forward to her making an impactful study, and drawing meaningful insights. KUDOS is beyond an academic lab, the landmark for urban innovation at FLAME University.

An intensive read that could be viewed as a “cost versus benefit” scenario when comparing diplomas and tuition to trade certifications and the outcome of wages earned for each. Enjoy!

Our Winchester, Virginia plant hosted professors and students from the University of Notre Dame and Clemson University to set up and pour specimens for the Precast Buckling-Restrained Braced (BRB) Frame Research Project. These were some of the most complicated pieces that our drafters, engineers, and plant associates have seen to date. The level of care shown by all, including our two Winchester summer interns who were able to be involved in this unique work, was second to none. After months of meetings, analytical work, developing drawings, lots of work to refine the details, and securing the materials needed, we successfully produced these frame specimens that will be tested at the University of Notre Dame in the coming months.The Precast BRB Frames research is a major, multi-year research project funded by the National Science Foundation, PCI, and many precast producers in conjunction with University of Notre Dame, Clemson University, and University of California San Diego to develop and codify a new seismic force-resisting system. The research consists of analytical work at Clemson, laboratory testing at UND, and shake table testing at UCSD. This major research project was born out of three PCI Jenny Fellowships that were awarded by the PCI R&D Council to Notre Dame and Clemson. Through the collaboration of those teams and advisory groups, we are seeing code changing research which is exciting to all who are involved. #thankyou #leaders #precastconcrete #educators #metromont

Yesterday, we had the privilege of hosting the annual High Sheriff Young Engineer Awards 2024. The ceremony is held to celebrate Oxfordshire’s future engineering talent. State schools across the county were invited to nominate students aged 12-18 across three age categories: Years 12 & 13, Years 10 & 11 and Years 8 & 9. 👩🔬 The awards are in their 13th year and are sponsored by Lucy Group, Engineering Trust Training and Abingdon and Witney College Prizes included £400 for the winning student in each category and £1,000 for the students’ respective school or college. There were also runner-up prizes in each category, a Team Award and an overall High Sheriff Award. 🏆 The judging panel reviewed an impressive calibre of entries this year, highlighting students who not only work hard but show great promise in the fields of Engineering, Resistant Materials, and Design Technology. Richard Dick, Executive Chairman at Lucy Group and founder of the Oxfordshire High Sheriff Young Engineer Awards, said: “𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘸’𝘴 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴; 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘢 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘵.” 🌍 #LucyGroup #Oxford #HighSheriffAwards #HighSheriffAwardsOxford #Engineering #DesignTechnology #FutureLeaders #ResistantMaterials #Awards #EngineeringAwards #Students #Sustainability

"#College is and will continue to be an important #pathway. We should be working to make the #highereducation system more understandable, affordable, and valuable for everyone who wants to go to college—or needs to for their chosen field. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t also be investing in other #pathwaystogoodjobs. We need a better system—for all workers—whether they have degrees or not."

🌱 Lifelong Learning: A Glimpse into My Journey! 🏗️ Today, I had the incredible privilege of attending the Franklin County Engineer's 2023 Fall Programmatic Open House after my classes at OSU, and the experience was nothing short of enlightening! I would like to thank Cornell Robertson for giving me this amazing opportunity - it definitely had an impact on me! 👷♂️Engineering Insights: Networking with seasoned engineers in the field was an invaluable opportunity. I delved into the inner workings of public projects, gaining firsthand knowledge of the diverse roles and responsibilities shouldered by consultants. 🛣️The Complex Web of Infrastructure: I got a firsthand look at the intricate web of variables, constraints, and stakeholders that come into play in an infrastructure project, especially when it spans multiple jurisdictions. Understanding how these elements interconnect is essential for successful project execution. 👨💼The Art of Consultant Selection: One of the highlights was unraveling the methodology behind consultant selection. It's all about ensuring the right expertise aligns with the project's unique needs. 📈Mission: Never-Ending Growth & Learning: As a Civil Engineering student at The Ohio State University and a lifelong learner, my thirst for knowledge knows no bounds. This experience seamlessly ties into my mission for continuous growth. It's a reminder that every interaction, every insight, fuels my journey toward becoming a knowledgeable and impactful engineer. 🏫Key Takeaways: This transformational experience affirmed my desire to pursue civil engineering, all while reinforcing the value of networking and partaking in new experiences. Participating in these events can seem daunting, but you will gain nothing if you don’t put yourself out there and try. After all, fortune truly does favor the bold. 💬What’s your learning “adventure” this week? Share how you’re seizing the day and achieving #personalgrowth in the comments below!

A lot of people think that the cap and gown are the ultimate goal. They're not wrong, but there's a whole lifetime that happens between admission and graduation. Don't just skip to the end. There's a lot of good in the in between. 💚 #TheRock #RockNation #RockPride #SRU #SRUPride #SlipperyRockPride #SlipperyRockUniversity #GoRock #UniversityAdvancement #Advancement #SupportOurStudents #GiveBack #InvestInOurFuture #EveryGiftCounts #Scholarships #encouragingstudents #studentsuccessstory #schooltriumphs #studentsupportnetwork #studentlifejourney #learningcommunity #schooltriumphs #CollegeGraduates #HigherEdCommunity 

Next week, a new chapter in my career will begin, for which I am most excited! I will study the IMFSE master's degree in fire safety engineering, starting in the University of Edinburgh School of Engineering. I aim to combine this knowledge with my structural engineering background to contribute to a safer society. 🤩 #firesafety #fire #structuralengineering
