Workshop on Future Directions for Siting and Geotechnical Systems Research in Earthquake Hazard Mitigation; August 4-5, 1986; Chicago, Illinois

该研讨会将讨论涉及选址和岩土系统的减轻地震灾害方面的挑战，以及应对这些挑战所需的基础研究。重点将是确定特别创新的想法，或涉及高风险/高回报的想法，这些想法通常被认为风险太大，不能获得无保留的同行批准。预计将有大约100名参与者参加，其中一半是选址和岩土系统计划的现有受赠人，其余的人将来自学术界、工业界、国家实验室、杰出的外国研究人员和资助机构的代表。与会者将被分成大约10人一组，每组将应对当前在减轻地震灾害方面的挑战，并负责确定和记录为迎接这一挑战而应采取的步骤。

This workshop will address the challenges in earthquake hazard mitigation involving siting and geotechnical systems, and the basic research that is needed to address these challenges. Emphasis will be given to identifying especially innovative ideas, or ideas involving high risk/high return which would generally be considered too risky to receive unqualified peer approval. Approximately 100 participants are expected to attend, with one half being current grantees of the Siting and Geotechnical Systems Program, while the remainder will be drawn from academe, industry, national laboratories, distinguished foreign researchers, and representatives from the funding agencies. The participants will be divided into groups of approximately 10 people, and each group will address a current challenge in earthquake hazard mitigation and will be charged with identifying and recording the steps to be taken to meet this challenge.
