[00:00:00.361](upbeat music)
[00:00:03.375]I chair the department of
[00:00:04.633]of Civil Engineering at the University of Nebraska
[00:00:06.408]in Lincoln, and I'm a professor of
[00:00:08.157]Structural Engineering in the department.
[00:00:10.363]My research focuses on transportation infrastructure,
[00:00:13.113]specifically bridges, and how to make the infrastructure
[00:00:15.974]last longer, and be as safe as possible.
[00:00:19.301](timed explosions)
[00:00:21.850]So, when the University imploded Cather and Pound,
[00:00:24.399]we were able to gather data from the buildings
[00:00:26.725]from adjacent sites, while the implosions were happening.
[00:00:29.196]And that data set is extremely unique.
[00:00:32.688]Not only within Nebraska,
[00:00:34.531]but across the country and around the world.
[00:00:36.736]And the information that we've developed and will provide,
[00:00:39.576]is going to be used by many people
[00:00:41.833]to make the world a better place to live.
[00:00:44.304](crowd applauds)
[00:00:46.595]Being apart of the Big 10 is a huge reason
[00:00:48.595]why I chose to come to Nebraska.
[00:00:51.133]It's a huge reason why we're attracting
[00:00:53.295]such amazing young women and men to be faculty here,
[00:00:56.723]and why we're attracting such amazing students
[00:00:59.224]from all over the world,
[00:01:00.485]to be a part of this great experience,
[00:01:02.587]that is University of Nebraska, Lincoln.
[00:01:06.666]Five years, what a ride.
[00:01:07.982]I can't wait for the next five, 10, 15, 20... 50.
