Integration of Graphics Workstations into Undergraduate Structural Testing Laboratory

本计画的目的是透过整合最先进的互动图形电脑硬体与软体与实验程式，来改善土木工程本科实验课程。这种能力的增加可以通过使用更复杂的实验来升级本科实验课程，这些实验现在可以很容易地与理论分析联系起来。该设备还使实验课程与本系正在进行的综合设计项目更紧密地联系在一起。

The purpose of this project is to improve the undergraduate laboratory courses in civil engineering by integrating state of the art interactive graphics computer hardware and software with the experimental program. The addition of this capability allows upgrading of the undergraduate laboratory course through the use of more sophisticated experiments which can now easily be related to theoretical analyses. The equipment also permits the laboratory courses to be more closely related to the comprehensive design project now underway in the department.
