The George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) initiated bythe US National Science Foundation (NSF) in late 1999 is intended to transform the nation's ability to carry out earthquake engineering research, With over $80 million in new cutting-edge tools for experimentation, networking, data curation and communication, the best minds in the earthquake engineering field will be able to challenge and solve the most difficult impediments to reducing the nation's vulnerability to earthquakes. NEES will fundamentally change the processes by which earthquake engineering research isinitiated and performed, accelerate the generation and dissemination of basic knowledge, facilitate the development of effective educational programs, minimize the lag between knowledge development and its application, and hasten the attainment of the nation's goals for earthquake loss reduction.To accelerate attainment of NEES' goals, and avoid unnecessary duplication of effort, US investigators need to have access to data and facilities available internationally, and to be able to collaborate and share data with experts in their or related fields around the world. The US earthquake engineering community has already achieved a distinguished record of international collaboration, which will be heightened through NEES. To promote international collaborations, a World Forum on Collaborative Research inEarthquake Engineering is being convened by the NEES Consortium, Inc. The NEES Consortium is expected by NSF to be a central focal point for international contacts regarding NEES, and has been encouraged to establish linkages and agreements necessary to facilitate international collaboration. The purposes of the World Forum are to convene in the US a representative international group of researchers and research administrators to discuss opportunities for collaboration with the NEES program as well as necessary linkages necessary to facilitate this collaboration. The World Forum will focus identifying (1)major international research programs and facilities; (2) policies or agreements needed to facilitate international collaborative research; and (3) infrastructure resources and standards needed to facilitate international collaboration.Intellectual Merit: The diversity of talents, backgrounds, experience and disciplinary concerns represented within NEES provides an unparalleled stimulus to intellectual inquiry and education. International collaboration is a key aspect of realizing this vision. Broader impacts resulting from proposed activity: The NEES program will provide heightened opportunities for international cooperation. These are associated with various activities, including conduct of international cooperative and collaborative research programs, sharing of unique research facilities and resources, development of international standards and capabilities for documenting, archiving and sharinginformation, and exchange of personnel. The pool of U.S. participants will include junior researchers, women and members of underrepresented groups, and/or graduate or undergraduate students.

美国国家科学基金会（NSF）于1999年末发起的地震工程模拟网络（NEE）乔治·E·布朗（George E.对地震的脆弱性。 NEES will fundamentally change the processes by which earthquake engineering research isinitiated and performed, accelerate the generation and dissemination of basic knowledge, facilitate the development of effective educational programs, minimize the lag between knowledge development and its application, and hasten the attainment of the nation's goals for earthquake loss reduction.To accelerate attainment of NEES' goals, and avoid unnecessary duplication of effort, US investigators need to have access to data and在国际上可用的设施，并能够与世界各地或相关领域的专家合作并共享数据。美国地震工程社区已经取得了国际合作的杰出记录，该记录将通过NEE提高。为了促进国际合作，NEES Consortium，Incortium，Incortium，Incortium召集了一个关于合作研究的世界合作论坛。NSF预计NEES联盟将成为国际联系有关NEES的核心焦点，并被鼓励建立链接和协议，以促进国际协作。世界论坛的目的是在美国召开代表性的国际研究人员和研究管理人员小组，以讨论与NEES计划合作的机会，以及促进这项合作所必需的必要联系。世界论坛将集中精力确定（1）主要的国际研究计划和设施； （2）促进国际合作研究所需的政策或协议； （3）促进国际协作所需的基础设施资源和标准。智能优点：NEE中所代表的才能，背景，经验和纪律问题的多样性为智力探究和教育提供了无与伦比的刺激。国际合作是实现这一愿景的关键方面。拟议活动造成的更广泛的影响：NEES计划将为国际合作提供更多的机会。这些与各种活动有关，包括进行国际合作和协作研究计划的行为，共享独特的研究设施和资源，制定国际标准以及记录，归档和共享信息以及人员交换的能力。美国参与者的库将包括初级研究人员，妇女和人数不足的团体和/或研究生或本科生的成员。
