    Advance Queensland Industry Research Fellowship (AQIRF)
    30 Jun 2023 - 30 Jun 2025
    Dr Ahmadi successfully secured and led an Advance Queensland Industry Research Fellowship (AQIRF) project ($620,000 total) in 2023, as the Chief Investigator, on the sustainability of maritime infrastructure with the aim of developing resilient glass-fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite structures for sustainable marine navigation infrastructure. This industry research project addressed the corrosion vulnerability of existing steel structures focusing on urgent national needs for decarbonised maritime systems. The technology developed in this project is capable of eliminating the expensive maintenance activities for marine navigation infrastructure costing Queensland on average $3.7M per year. His partners in this project were the Department of Transport and Main Roads, a Queensland Government agency, and Wagners Composite Fibre Technologies, a leading manufacturer of fibre composites in Australia with global recognition.
