Richard Miller is a Professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Geodetic Engineering at the University of Cincinnati. He holds the rank of Professor and has served as Principal Investigator (PI) on numerous transportation-related research projects funded by federal, state, and industry sponsors.
His research focuses on structural engineering with particular emphasis on bridge systems, concrete materials science, and infrastructure rehabilitation. Key areas include prestressed concrete girder behavior, high-strength reinforcement applications, nondestructive evaluation, and bridge maintenance strategies. Miller has also contributed to national standards development through AASHTO and PCI guidelines.
Over 30 years of continuous funding (1994-2024) demonstrates his sustained leadership in transportation infrastructure research. Notable grants include $1.45M NSF Distinguished Faculty Advancement Program (2024) and $992K Federal Highway Administration training initiatives. His work bridges academic research with practical industry applications, addressing critical challenges in bridge safety, durability, and lifecycle management.
- Over 60 peer-reviewed publications
- Principal Investigator on 45+ grants totaling over $15M
- Collaborator with FHWA, ODOT, and TRB
- Key contributions to PCI Bridge Manual updates
Current research focuses on advanced materials for bridge decks, corrosion mitigation strategies, and innovative repair techniques. His lab conducts full-scale structural testing and field monitoring of critical infrastructure components.
