Solar Thermal Research Centre
We develop next-generation solar thermal technologies, including side-by-side PV/solar thermal systems and heat-pump-assisted solar systems. Our facilities include first-class optical measurement equipment and a rooftop test platform. In addition to performing original research, STRL is frequently contracted to do solar reflective index measurements for companies around the world.
Centre for Pavement and Transportation Technology Laboratory
The research work focuses on the advancement and optimization of conventional pavement technology, which also involves utilization of the latest technologies from other disciplines.
Mechatronics Vehicle Lab
Developing novel technologies such as green power-trains, advanced suspension, and vehicle stability and control. These technologies are critical to the improvement of performance, safety and environmental sustainability of a new generation of electric and hybrid automobiles that hold great potentials to reduce vehicle emissions and improve the fuel economy. We are also involved in vehicle modelling, using real-time simulation and hardware-in-the-loop.
