Travel Support for U.S. Participants in the Third International Conference in Earthquake Engineering

2004年10月，美国马里兰大学/College ParkAn在南京召开了“地震工程研究现状及其向技术依赖型研究和中心网络型研究的转变”国际会议。这笔旅行资助将支持大约15名美国研究人员参加会议，其中包括学生、年轻人和代表性不足的小组成员以及美中地震协议项目的受助者。这次会议有望促进中美两国研究人员在地震工程、结构健康监测、传感器技术和结构控制等领域的合作研究。还可能通过试验台进行技术转让、交换研究数据以及跨国界培训学生和研究人员。

Abstract0414433Peter ChangUniv Maryland/College ParkAn international conference emphasizing on the state of the arts research of earthquake engineering and its transformation to technology-dependent research and center and network based research is organized in Nanjing, China in October 2004. This travel grant will support approximately 15 US researchers, including student, young and under-represented group members and US-PRC Earthquake Protocol Program grantees to attend the conference. The conference is expected to lead to collaborative research between US and PRC researchers in the areas of earthquake engineering, structural health monitoring, sensors technology, and structural control. Technology transfer through test-beds, exchange of research data and training of students and researchers across the borders is also likely.
