ASU team helps Marine base prepare to stay strong in the face of disaster

A team of seven experts in resilient and sustainable systems were recruited to help U.S. Marines at a base in Hawaii come up with plans for how to maintain water, communications and energy services — along with mobility capability — during major natural disasters and other emergency situations. Fulton Schools Assistant Professor Nathan Johnson lent his expertise on how to innovate energy systems — including smart networks and off-grid solutions. Expertise in infrastructure sustainability, including maintaining critical operations under dangerous situations such as physical attacks by hostile forces or cyberattacks, was provided by Fulton Schools Associate Professor Mikhail Chester.
