Editor:

A Research Agenda for the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES)

Lingkup Pembahasan:

Buku ini terdiri atas 6 Bab. Bab 1 memberikan gambaran singkat dari ancaman gempa bumi, bahwa kontribusi penelitian rekayasa gempa untuk mengurangi risiko, penjelasan singkat dari Nees, dan peran diantisipasi untuk Nees di penelitian masa depan. Bab 2 membahas isu-isu penelitian di tujuh topikal daerah (seismologi, tsunami, geoteknik, bangunan, jalur hidup, penilaian risiko, dan kebijakan publik) bahwa komite percaya adalah kunci untuk mencapai pencegahan bencana gempa. Bab 3 membahas Peran Nees dalam tantangan penelitian besar, menguraikan beberapa tantangan besar ide penelitian, dan menyajikan beberapa contoh bagaimana peralatan situs Nees dapat dikonfigurasi untuk melakukan penelitian kolaboratif als propos. Bab 4 membahas dampak dan kemungkinan peran potensi baru teknologi informasi dan komunikasi sehubungan dengan penelitian teknik gempa dan bagaimana teknologi baru dan berkembang akan mempengaruhi Nees. Bab 4 juga mempertimbangkan isu-isu yang terkait dengan teleobservation dan teleparticipation dalam penelitian, serta berbagi, pengarsipan, dan data mining. Bab 5 menyajikan penelitian komite Rencana. Bab 6 menyajikan kesimpulan keseluruhan komite dan rekomendasi spesifik tentang peran NSF dan Nees dalam mencegah bencana gempa.
