The goal of this project is to encourage more outstanding undergraduates to pursue research careers. Considerable experience has been gained by conducting two successful REU sites in the las three years. For this project, the key aspects of the 1987-88 and 1988-1989 REU sites will be continued including: (1) a successful recruitment program, (2) careful matching of student interests with available research projects, (3) an efficient management structure, (4) research assignments the students can quickly grasp and complete in the proposed time frame, and (5) follow-up procedures designed to maintain student interest in research. The five research projects will involve probabilistic methods, stat-of-the-art solid testing, scale modeling, structural testing, and soil-structure interaction. Two students will be involved in each project to allow for student interaction. Interaction will also be fostered by group seminars and meetings. Follow-through strategies will include a newsletter mailed for a period of two years to the REU student. The students will have full use of our advanced laboratories and computational facilities.

该项目的目标是鼓励更多的优秀 本科生追求研究事业。 相当丰富的经验 通过在拉斯维加斯进行两个成功的REU站点而获得 三年 就这项计划而言，一九八七至八八年度的主要工作， 1988-1989年，将继续进行REU研究，包括：（1）成功的 招生计划，（2）仔细匹配学生的兴趣与 现有的研究项目，（3）一个有效的管理结构， (4)学生可以快速掌握和完成的研究作业 （5）后续程序，旨在 保持学生对研究的兴趣。 五个研究项目 将涉及概率方法，最先进的固体测试， 比例建模、结构测试和土-结构相互作用。 每个项目将有两名学生参与， 互动 还将通过小组研讨会和 会议. 后续战略将包括一份通讯邮寄 两年的时间里，学生们。 学生们将有 充分利用我们先进的实验室和计算设施。
