This action is for support of a workshop to discuss a proposed US-Turkey cooperative project in earthquake engineering. This project is being considered for implementation under the US-Republic of Turkey Joint Cooperative Science and Technology Program. The project involves the installation of an earthquake strong-motion array in Turkey, to record the strong ground shaking from future earthquakes. Following the installation of the array, instrumented buildings would be constructed near the array, enabling both the free-field motions and the building response to be recorded. Because of the unexpected nature, both in time and in space, of the occurrence of earthquakes, and the localized influence of major earthquakes, such data are rarely recorded. Yet it is this full-scale data that is critically needed to advance the state-of-the-art of earthquake engineering. International cooperation is essential in order to speed up the acquisition of this much-needed data. The objective of the proposed cooperative project is to install a strong-motion array, with densely spaced instrument stations, near to the site (within 20 kilometers) in which a major earthquake (Richter magnitude 6 or greater) is predicted to occur within, say, 5 years. Since scientific earthquake prediction is still in its infancy, the prediction of the occurrence is subject to major uncertainty: the prediction of the location and magnitude of the earthquake is much less uncertain. The planning for this array is occurring in stages. In 1978, an international workshop in Hawaii identified sites in Turkey as being amongst the most likely locations worldwide to record strong ground motions, as defined above. In 1985 a US-Turkey workshop held in Istanbul, Turkey, examined in greater depth the feasibility of a strong motion array. The conclusion was that the concept was feasible, and specific recommendations were made. The objective of this present workshop is to work out the final details of the US contribution to the cooperative project, and to prepare a report of the findings to be presented to a US-Turkey workshop to be held in Turkey in September, 1989. Detailed plans for the array will be finalized at this workshop, and the recommendations will be presented to TUBITAK (Turkey) and NSF (US) for joint approval and implementation.//

这一行动是为了支持讲习班， 讨论拟议中的美土合作 地震工程项目。 这 该项目正在考虑 根据美利坚合众国 土耳其联合科学和技术合作组织 技术方案。 该项目涉及安装一个 土耳其的地震强震阵列， 记录下未来大地的强烈震动 地震 在安装了 阵列，仪表化建筑物将是 在阵列附近建造，使两者都能够 自由场运动和建筑物响应 被记录下来 因为意外的 无论在时间上还是在空间上， 地震的发生，以及 大地震的影响，这些数据是 很少记录。 然而，正是这种全面的 这些数据是推进 最先进的地震工程学 国际合作至关重要， 为了加快收购这一 急需的数据。 拟议合作社的目标 项目是安装一个强运动阵列， 密集分布的仪器站， 到现场（20公里内），其中一个 大地震（里氏6级或 更大）预计将发生在，比方说，5 年 自从科学地震 预测仍处于起步阶段， 预测的发生取决于 主要不确定性： 地震的位置和震级 更不用说不确定了 此阵列的规划工作正在进行， 阶段 1978年，一个国际研讨会 在夏威夷发现土耳其的遗址 世界上最有可能的地点之一 记录强烈的地面运动， 以上 1985年，美国和土耳其在 土耳其的伊斯坦布尔， 强震阵列的可行性的 结论是这个概念是可行的， 并提出了具体建议。 本次研讨会的目的是 制定出美国的最终细节 对合作项目的贡献，以及 准备一份调查结果报告， 提交给美国-土耳其研讨会， 1989年9月在土耳其。 详细计划 将在此完成 研讨会，并将建议 提交给TUBITAK（土耳其）和NSF（美国） 共同批准和实施。//
