Comprehensive Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory.

这个项目让土木工程专业的学生接触到一个综合的岩土工程实验室，该实验室将计算机集成到实验室实验中。计算机集成包括对一组仪器的实时数据采集和控制。实验设备包括：压力渗透器、温控冻融室、延伸计、循环三轴细胞、接口微机及各种传感器和传感器。这个实验室不仅加强了现有的岩土工程实验，而且还允许学生在新的领域进行研究，例如：检查污染物通过土壤的迁移和进行土壤的三维测试。这笔奖金将由受资助者提供等额的奖金。

This project exposes Civil Engineering students to a comprehensive geotechnic engineering laboratory that integrates computers into laboratory experiments. The computer integration involves real-time data acquisition from and control of a collection of instruments. The lab equipment includes: pressure permeater, temperature controlled freezing and thawing chamber, extensometer, cyclic triaxial cell, interfaced microcomputer and various sensors and transducers. This lab not only enhances existing experiments in geotechnic engineering but also permits students to carry on studies in new areas such as: examining the migration of pollutants through soils and performing 3-D testing of soils. This award is being matched by an equal sum from the grantee.
