The Fifth U.S.-Japan Workshop on Wind Engineering; held July 26-28, 2010.

该项目的目标是进行第五次美国-日本风力工程研讨会作为UJNR的一部分（美国-日本自然资源合作计划）风和地震效应小组将于2010年7月26日至28日在明尼阿波利斯举行为期三天的会议。该项目将主要支持美国参与者的差旅费用，同时鼓励年轻研究人员的参与。该研讨会每三至四年在美国和日本轮流举行。UJNR小组正在努力将来自学术机构、政府实验室和工业界的美国和日本研究人员聚集在一起，以发展有利于两国的合作努力。本次研讨会的具体目标是：（a）评估最近完成的合作研究工作，如大跨度桥梁颤振、斜拉索振动、低层建筑物上的龙卷风荷载和风暴破坏调查;（B）继续就正在进行的研究和实践相互交流信息;以及（c）确定新的合作研究项目。这次研讨会与以往的研讨会一样，将促进技术信息、气象数据和强风结构响应数据的交流，并分享两国独特的研究设施。

The goal of this project is to conduct the fifth U.S.-Japan workshop on wind engineering as part of the UJNR (U.S.-Japan Cooperative Program on Natural Resources) Panel on Wind and Seismic Effects that will be held for three days at Minneapolis on July 26-28, 2010. This project will mainly support the travel cost of the US participants while encouraging participation of young researchers. This workshop is held every three to four years alternately in the U.S. and in Japan. It is an ongoing effort of the UJNR Panel to bring together U.S. and Japanese researchers from academic institutions, government laboratories and industry to develop collaborative efforts that will benefit both the countries. Specific objectives of this workshop are to (a) assess the recently completed collaborative research efforts such as long-span-bridge flutter, stay-cable vibration, tornado loads on low-rise buildings and storm damage survey, (b) continue mutual exchange of information on ongoing research and practice, and (c) identify new projects for collaborative research. This workshop like those in the past will facilitate exchanging of technical information, meteorological data and structural response data from strong winds, and sharing of unique research facilities in both the countries.
