9812556 Nigg This award is to the Disaster Research Center at the University of Delaware for a collaborative research project with the Research Center for Disaster Reduction Systems, a unit within the Disaster Prevention Research Institute at Kyoto University. The objectives of the project are to better understand: (1) the expectations that public and stakeholder groups have concerning likely earthquake impacts on the built environment; (2) the importance they attach to the survivability and performance of various elements of the built environment, including infrastructure systems (bridges, highways, utility lifelines); and (3) their policy preferences with respect to mitigation and other loss-reduction strategies, with a particular emphasis on understanding what are considered acceptable levels of performance, loss, and disruption. The project uses two methodologies to investigate these issues: (1) a community survey of randomly selected residents in the Oakland/Alameda County area of California; and (2) small group exercises of prominent members of four constituency groups--engineers, local government officials, representatives of the business and financial community, and city and county residents--in that same area. ***

9812556 Nigg该奖项授予特拉华州大学灾害研究中心，以表彰其与京都大学防灾研究所下属的减灾系统研究中心开展的一项合作研究项目。 该项目的目标是更好地了解：（1）公众和利益相关者团体对地震可能对建筑环境产生的影响的期望;（2）他们对建筑环境各种要素（包括基础设施系统）的生存能力和性能的重视程度（桥梁、公路、公用事业生命线）;（3）他们在缓解和其他减少损失策略方面的政策偏好，特别强调理解什么是可接受的性能、损失和中断水平。 该项目使用两种方法来调查这些问题：（1）在加州的奥克兰/阿拉米达县地区对随机选择的居民进行社区调查;（2）在同一地区对四个选区的杰出成员-工程师、地方政府官员、商业和金融界代表以及城市和县居民-进行小组调查。 ***
