This is the only WCU project that was funded by Korean government in the area of civil and architectural engineering. This project addresses the challenge of the topic of nano-fusion in civil engineering. He was one of only two individuals who were selected as the only foreign scholars working on this project. This project clearly shows that the international colleagues also regard nanotechnology as an important future direction in engineering, and Dr. Voyiadjis was already recognized as one of the leaders of his generation in that area.

This proposal is a five year project for $3.5 million and is on the "Development of multiscale simulation methods for nano fusion technologies in construction materials for sustainable infrastructures." The funding agency is the Korean Science Engineering Foundation (KOSEF) and is the only proposal funded in Korea in Civil and Architectural Engineering. It is a unique opportunity for LSU to create ties with Hanyang University and Korea in general.
