Second International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering, St. Louis, MO, June 1-5, 1988, Group Travel Award in Indian Currency

描述：该项目支持印度科学家参加1988年6月1日至5日在密苏里州圣路易斯举行的第二届岩土工程历史国际会议。会议将讨论固体、危险和放射性固体的岩土和水文管理、地质工程和岩石力学、水坝、堤防和斜坡、地震工程和土壤动力学以及土壤-结构相互作用等方面的历史案例。适当的文献记录的案例历史计划，以帮助弥合理论和实践之间的差距。此外，将确定满足现有需要的未来研究领域。范围：来自46个国家提交的345篇论文中，有35篇来自印度科学家和工程师。这次会议应该使美国和印度科学家交流在两国取得的重要研究成果和经验，并帮助规划在这一领域的有益合作。

Description: This project supports travel of Indian scientists to attend the Second International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering, in St. Louis, MO., June 1-5, 1988. The conference will address case histories in geotechnical and hydrological management of solid, hazardous and radioactive solids, geological engineering and rock mechanics, dams, embankments and slopes, earthquake engineering and soil dynamics, and soil-structure interaction. Proper documentation of case histories is planned to help bridge the gap between theory and practice. In addition, areas of future research to meet existing needs will be identified. Scope: Of some 345 papers from 46 countries submitted for presentation at the conference, 35 are from Indian scientists and engineers. The meeting should bring U.S. and Indian scientists to exchange important results of research and experiences gained in the two countries, and to help plan useful collaboration in this area.
