CES-Lab Researches and Consults
We Provide Innovative
Sustainable Solutions
The Computational Engineering for Sustainability Lab (CES-Lab) in the University of Tasmania’s School of Engineering is a collection of civil, geotechnical and mechanical researchers with strong track record working with clients to deliver projects in the computational engineering sector. Our design and testing expertise supports engineering developments in the form of
– Modelling and Simulation
– Constitutive Behaviour
– Optimisation
– Uncertainty Analysis
We use numerical simulations coupled with laboratory and site-specific testing to investigate engineering applications ranging from natural hazards, offshore structures, foundation systems and large excavations.

The palawa people belong to the oldest continuing culture in the world. They cared and protected Country for thousands of years. They knew this land, they lived on the land and they died on these lands. We honour them. We pay respects to elders past and present and to the many Aboriginal people that did not make elder status and to the Tasmanian Aboriginal community that continue to care for Country. We recognise a history of truth which acknowledges the impacts of invasion and colonisation upon Aboriginal people resulting in the forcible removal from their lands. Tasmania is deeply unique, with spectacular landscapes with our cities and towns surrounded by bushland, wilderness, mountain ranges and beaches. We stand for a future that profoundly respects and acknowledges Aboriginal perspectives, culture, language and history. And a continued effort to fight for Aboriginal justice and rights paving the way for a strong future.
