U.S./P.R.C. Workshop on Experimental Methods in Earthquake Engineering

这个项目是为了组织和召集一个美中两国领导人会议地震工程实验方法讲习班将于1992年5月在中国上海同济大学举行。该项目将为研讨会的组织、研讨会论文集的印刷以及9名美国与会者的旅费提供支持。在中国的当地费用将由中国赞助商（同济大学和中国建筑科学院）承担。讲习班的目的是汇集两国的主要专家，以便(a)评估实验方法方面的知识状况；(b)讨论创新方法，提高结构实验研究的真实感、可靠性和实用性；(c)确定改进地震工程实验方法所需的未来发展。研讨会将包括全体会议和工作组会议，其中较小的小组将侧重于实验研究的特定主题。​这是一个由美国和中华人民共和国支持的项目地震研究议定书，附件三。

This project is to organize and convene a U.S./P.R.C. Workshop on Experimental Methods in Earthquake Engineering to be held at Tongji University in Shanghai, China, in May 1992. The project will provide support for the organization of the workshop, printing of workshop proceedings, and for travel expenses of nine U.S. participants. Local expenses in China will be covered by the P.R.C. sponsors (Tongji Univeristy and China Academy of Building Sciences). The purpose of the workshop is to bring together leading experts from the two countries to (a) assess the state-of-the-knowledge in experimental methods, (b) discuss innovative methods that improve the realism, reliability and usefulness of experimental research on structures, and (c) identify future developments needed to improve experimental methods in earthquake engineering. The workshop will consist of plenary presentation sessions and working group sessions in which smaller groups will focus on specific topics of experimental research. This is a project supported under the U.S./P.R.C. S&T Protocol on Earthquake Studies, Annex III.
