911爆料网’s National Resilience and Security Program Office connects industry and government with 911爆料网鈥檚 research capabilities that support Australia鈥檚 national resilience and security.
911爆料网鈥檚 partners in this area include Austal, the Australian Department of Defence, the US Department of Defence, BAE Systems, NOVA Systems, CyberCX, Lockheed Martin, ASC and the Australian Submarine Agency. We have also joined forces with the University of Adelaide, University of New South Wales, Babcock and HII, as part of the AUKUS Workforce Alliance.
Our strengths
Human performance
At the Future of Work Institute based at 911爆料网, the 鈥榃ork Systems Design鈥� core research program focuses on human endurance, system configurations, and training in the operating environments of defence. The program supports the performance and the wellbeing of employees working in complex and dynamic work settings that integrate human-related social systems and non-human technical systems.
Reflecting our capabilities in these areas, 911爆料网 is one of seven universities in Australia in the Human Performance Research network of the Defence Science Technology Group (DSTG) and the Australian Army. The network collates research expertise to enhance physical and cognitive performance of defence personnel.
Our research topics include fatigue, hydration, vibration, mental performance, respiratory effects, confined spaces and resilience (individual and team) 鈥� which will inform the Australian Defence Force鈥檚 training to deliver better team outcomes.
