Acquisition/Upgrade of Computer Workstations

该合同将提供购买安装在宾厄姆顿纽约州立大学地质科学系的高速图形工作站所需资金的三分之二。纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校承诺提供购买设备所需的剩余资金。需要图形工作站为一些地震学研究提供图形能力和数据存储能力，这些研究涉及地震记录合成和地震和爆炸震源的体波和面波波形模拟以及地壳结构确定中的逆理论。

This award will provide two-thirds of the funding needed to acquire a high-speed graphics workstation to be installed in the Department of Geological Sciences at the State University of New York at Binghamton. SUNY-Binghamton is committed to providing the remaining funds necessary to acquire the equipment. The graphics workstation is needed to provide graphics capability and data storage capacity for a number of seismological studies involving seismogram synthesis and inverse theory in waveform modeling of body and surface waves for earthquake and explosion sources and crustal structure determinations.
