Publishing and Travel Support with Respect to the 5th International Conference on Statistics and Probability in Soil and Structural Engineering

这笔赠款是为了方便将于1987年5月25日至29日在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行的第五届国际统计与概率在土壤和结构工程中的应用会议的差旅和会议记录的准备工作。这是该会议首次在北美举行。首席调查员是规划委员会的重要成员，并协助组织了会议的技术会议。赠款用于支付会议记录的印刷、出版和分发费用。会议记录将分成两卷，将是对土壤和结构工程中概率方法的最新理解的概要。首席研究员是这一研究领域公认的国家专家。建议提供一笔赠款。

This grant is to facilitate the travel and the preparation of the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Applications of Statistics and Probability in Soil and Structural Engineering to be held in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, May 25-29, 1987. This is the first time that this conference is being held in North America. The Principal Investigator is a key member of the Committee for the Planning and has helped to organize the technical sessions for the meeting.
