AccelNet-Design: International Networks Towards Future U.S. Urban Resilience (Resilient-NET)

城市弹性是一个全球性问题，需要全球性的解决方案，但现有的城市弹性研究网络往往受到其地区、机构、学科和社会背景的影响。resilience - net采用综合技术-社会-气候视角，将不同学科和传统上孤立的网络结合在一起，以解决城市居民面临的众多挑战。该网络将气候模型整合到风险和城市物流模型中，解决与供应链相关的可靠性和物流问题，并探索气候、基础设施和社会系统之间的耦合。resilience - net催化了新的跨学科全球合作，协同了互补的科学专业知识，并为美国研究人员提供了获取独一无二的试点项目、数据、平台和研究能力的关键途径，以产生全球影响，并加强他们在未来城市社会技术系统中建立弹性的新挑战方面的领导作用。resilience - net创建了未来弹性城市生态系统的路线图，以对美国城市的宜居性和经济可行性产生社会影响。参与网络包括来自亚洲和欧洲的世界知名城市弹性研究中心、美国跨学科研究社区、美国国家科学基金会资助的极端事件研究网络、联合国人居计划，以及物联网、智慧城市技术和国家实验室等行业的利益相关者。这项合作确定了通过综合技术-社会-气候方法建设城市抗灾能力方面的主要研究差距和增强能力。设计活动被组织成三个集群。集群1侧重于如何增强数字空间——未来城市控制论有机体的骨架——并将其用于改善未来城市弹性研究；集群2确定了改善城市环境中的社会弹性和解决基础设施与社会系统耦合问题所需的新型趋同研究结构；集群3加速了对极端事件对未来城市社会技术系统影响的理解，并确定了随着气候变化、基础设施重建和物理基础设施数字化而演变的密集城市环境的未来复原力缺失的能力。解决这些具有重要社会意义的挑战促进了数据科学、物流、社会科学、土木工程、地球科学和气候学等领域的融合研究，其范围和量级超出了单个研究社区的能力。通过resilience - net建立的国际网络对于加速这一领域的知识发现至关重要，因为它可以尽早获得目前只能从全球合作伙伴处获得的新数据和平台，并通过促进知识、数据和最佳实践共享的协作努力。通过国际网络对网络合作加速研究（AccelNet）计划旨在加速科学发现的进程，并为下一代美国研究人员进行多团队国际合作做好准备。AccelNet项目支持美国研究网络与国外互补网络之间的战略联系，将利用研究和教育资源来应对需要重大国际协调努力的重大科学挑战。该项目由国际科学与工程办公室（OISE）资助。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

AccelNet-Design: International Networks Towards Future U.S. Urban Resilience (Resilient-NET)OISE #2201467 LIUUrban resilience is a global issue that requires a global solution, but existing networks on urban resilience research are often shaped by their regional, institutional, disciplinary, and social contexts. Resilient-NET takes an integrated technical-social-climate perspective to bring together disparate disciplines and traditionally isolated networks to address the multitude of challenges faced by urban dwellers. This network integrates climate models into risk and urban logistics models, addresses reliability and logistics problems associated with supply chains, and explores coupling among climate, infrastructural and social systems. Resilient-NET catalyzes new cross-disciplinary global collaborations, synergizes complementary scientific expertise, and provides critical access to one-of-its-kind pilot projects, data, platforms, and research capabilities for U.S. researchers to make global impacts and strengthen their leadership roles on emerging challenges in building resilience into future urban socio-technical systems. Resilient-NET creates a roadmap towards future resilient urban ecosystems, to generate societal impacts on the livability and economic viability of American cities. Participating networks include world-renowned research centers on urban resilience from Asia and Europe, cross-disciplinary U.S. research communities, NSF-funded networks on Extreme Events Research, United Nations’ Habitat Program, and stakeholders from the industry sectors of IoT, Smart Cities technologies and National Labs.This collaboration identifies key research gaps and enabling capabilities in building urban resilience through an integrated technical-social-climate approach. The design activities are organized into three clusters. Cluster 1 focuses on how digital space—the skeletons of future urban cybernetic organisms—can be enhanced and used to improve future urban resilience research; Cluster 2 identifies the new types of convergence research structures needed to improve social resilience in urban environments and address coupled infrastructure and social systems; and Cluster 3 accelerates the understanding of the impacts of extreme events on future urban social-technical systems, and identify the missing capabilities that enable future resilience of dense urban environments evolving with climate change, infrastructure redevelopment, and digitization of physical infrastructure. Addressing these societally important challenges fosters convergence research from data science, logistics, social science, civil engineering, geosciences, and climatology, with a scope and magnitude beyond the capabilities of a single research community. International networks established via Resilient-NET are essential to accelerating the discovery of knowledge in this space through early access to new data and platforms currently only available from global partners and through collaborative efforts which promote knowledge, data, and best practice sharing.The Accelerating Research through International Network-to-Network Collaborations (AccelNet) program is designed to accelerate the process of scientific discovery and prepare the next generation of U.S. researchers for multiteam international collaborations. The AccelNet program supports strategic linkages among U.S. research networks and complementary networks abroad that will leverage research and educational resources to tackle grand scientific challenges that require significant coordinated international efforts. This project is funded by the Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
