9810466 B.Kutter This action is to support a workshop in Davis, CA, during 1998, to discuss the needs in geotechnical engineering and engineering seismology within the proposed National Network for High Performance Seismic Simulation (NHPS). While the focus is on the needs within geotechnical engineering, the interface with facilities for structural and coastal engineering seismic simulation will be considered. The proposed NHPS responds to the need, expressed via a series of workshops extending over a period of twenty years, to obtain experimental data on the behavior of engineering materials, soils, and constructed facilities during earthquake strong-ground shaking. Integral to the NHPS is the concept of connecting the experimental facilities via a modern high-performance computer and communication network in order to enhance the capabilities of the individual facilities through synergism, and to provide remote access by off-site users. It is planned to extend the network to include key experimental facilities around the world. The objective of this workshop is to discuss challenging research topics to be addressed, and the specific experimental facilities needed to perform the associated experiments. It is expected that the deliberations of this workshop will: (1) contribute to a clearer definition of the experimental facilities to be included within the NHPS, and the experiments that can be undertaken using these facilities; and (2) begin a discussion of important culture changes associated with the NHPS resulting from remote access capabilities, the rapid dissemination of results, and the need to give appropriate authorship credit for the rapid publication of experimental results. ***

9810466 B.Kutter这项行动是为了支持1998年在加利福尼亚州戴维斯举行的一次研讨会，讨论拟议的国家高性能地震模拟网络内岩土工程和工程地震学方面的需要。虽然重点放在岩土工程的需求上，但将考虑与结构和海岸工程地震模拟设施的接口。拟议的NHPS通过一系列为期20年的研讨会表达了对获得工程材料、土壤和已建设施在地震强烈地面震动中行为的实验数据的需求。NHPS的组成部分是通过现代高性能计算机和通信网络连接实验设施的概念，以便通过协同增强单个设施的能力，并为非现场用户提供远程访问。计划将该网络扩展到包括世界各地的关键实验设施。本研讨会的目的是讨论要解决的具有挑战性的研究课题，以及执行相关实验所需的具体实验设施。预计这次研讨会的讨论将：(1)有助于更明确地界定将纳入国家卫生和公众服务局的实验设施，以及可以使用这些设施进行的实验；(2)开始讨论与国家卫生和公众服务部相关的重要文化变化，这些变化是由于远程访问能力、结果的快速传播以及需要为迅速发表实验结果给予适当的作者学分。***
