The TIDE solution eliminates the subjective or text-based evaluations associated with other approaches. The Argonne team developed the TIDE facility threat assessment tool that allows security professionals to more quickly and cost-effectively evaluate threats to their facilities and identify threat-specific mitigation options. Overall, TIDE provides a customized, defensible and repeatable threat assessment that security professionals can use with confidence when making recommendations to stakeholders. Security professionals face a wide range of threats to their facilities and operations.

RAPT, used by local, state, tribal, territorial, federal, private sector and nonprofit public safety officials, has been widely applied for pre-landfall hurricane planning, contingency planning for COVID- 19, post-tornado incident analysis and many other steady-state and operational planning activities. federal departments and agencies to tackle analytically challenging problems. RAPT is one example of how DOE national laboratories can successfully partner with other U.S. RAPT and the CRIA were co-developed by the Argonne team and the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s ( FEMA) Benjamin Rance and Karen Marsh. It includes information about vulnerable populations, infrastructure systems, hazards and indicators of resilience derived from Argonne’s Community Resilience Indicator Analysis ( CRIA). The RAPT is a geographic information system ( GIS) tool to help emergency managers and community partners at all GIS skill levels visualize and assess potential challenges to community resilience. Resilience Analysis and Planning Tool ( RAPT) Carol Freeman, Carmella Burdi, Kyle Burke Pfeiffer and Lesley Edgemon Both finalists and winners were recognized at a virtual 2020 R &D 100 Conference on Sept. The Argonne technologies described below were among those chosen as winners and finalists by an independent panel of more than 40 industry leaders. Past winners include Fortune 500 companies, DOE national laboratories, academic institutions and smaller companies. Argonne scientists have received more than 130 R &D 100 Awards since the competition began. Department of Energy’s ( DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and partner organizations have been named as 2020 R &D 100 Award winners three others have been named as finalists.įor 56 years, the R &D 100 Awards have served as the nation’s most prestigious innovation awards program, honoring R &D pioneers and their revolutionary ideas in science and technology. Five technologies developed by researchers at the U.S.
