项目摘要

Recent advances in computing and web-based communications have created the possibility of allowing remote, real-time access to experimental facilities and data. This project will create a Grid-based network between the UK's three leading earthquake engineering laboratories at Oxford, Cambridge and Bristol. The network will enable participation by remote researchers in experiments through two-way video links and on-line data streaming (teleparticipation), remote operation of certain facilities (teleoperation), synchronous operation of geographically distributed experimental facilities in a common experiment (distributed hybrid testing), and the archiving and sharing of data via a curated data repository. The network will (i) optimise the utility of these key laboratories by opening them up to users around the UK and the wider world, (ii) enhance collaboration and integration of research effort, (iii) enable testing of larger and more complex structures than can be tested in a single lab, and (iv) reduce the need to replicate expensive facilities in numerous locations. The system will be connected to, and closely modelled on, the recently established George E. Brown Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) in the USA. The work performed in this project will comprise the installation of the necessary equipment and software, integration with existing systems in the three laboratories and the performance of a series of tests, which will demonstrate and evaluate the capabilities for tele-participation and distributed testing. Tele-participation tests will take place both within the UK and with trans-Atlantic partners. The distributed test will be carried out between the three laboratories, each of which will test at large scale a component of an idealised bridge. The three tests will be performed synchronously, with data passed between them at each timestep.

计算和基于网络的通信的最新进展创造了允许远程实时访问实验设施和数据的可能性。该项目将在牛津、剑桥和布里斯托的英国三个领先的地震工程实验室之间建立一个基于网格的网络。该网络将使远程研究人员能够通过双向视频链接和在线数据流（远程参与）参与实验，远程操作某些设施（远程操作），在共同实验中同步操作地理上分布的实验设施（分布式混合测试），以及通过管理的数据储存库存档和共享数据。该网络将（i）通过向英国和世界各地的用户开放这些关键实验室来优化这些实验室的效用，（ii）加强研究工作的合作和整合，（iii）使测试更大和更复杂的结构比在单个实验室中进行测试，以及（iv）减少在许多地方复制昂贵设施的需要。该系统将与最近建立的乔治E。美国布朗地震工程模拟网络（NEES）。该项目的工作将包括安装必要的设备和软件，与三个实验室的现有系统相结合，并进行一系列测试，以展示和评价远程参与和分布式测试的能力。远程参与测试将在英国境内和跨大西洋合作伙伴之间进行。分布式测试将在三个实验室之间进行，每个实验室将对理想桥梁的一个组件进行大规模测试。这三个测试将同步执行，每个时间步都有数据在它们之间传递。
