9311031 Durrani The main objective of this equipment grant is the acquisition of a shaking table facility by the Civil Engineering Department of Rice University. The shaking table facility is needed to test up to one-fifth scale structural models under dynamic base excitation. The shaking table will be 5 ft x 5 ft in size with a test load capacity of 1,500 pounds. The highest frequency targeted for the table is 40 Hz. Rice has cost-shared approximately half of the total requested amount for this experimental equipment and will continue to maintain and upgrade the system in the future. The availability of a shaking table will enable experimental verification of several ongoing and future research projects related to seismic response of structures. The installation of a shaking table in the structures laboratory will complement the existing research focus on analytical research and will provide the foundation for a wide range of future projects in experimental structural dynamics. ***

9311031 Durrani 这项设备拨款的主要目的是为莱斯大学土木工程系购买一套振动台设施。 振动台设施需要在动态基础激励下测试高达五分之一比例的结构模型。 振动台尺寸为 5 英尺 x 5 英尺，测试负载能力为 1,500 磅。 该表的目标最高频率是 40 Hz。 赖斯分担了该实验设备总请求金额的大约一半，并将在未来继续维护和升级该系统。 振动台的可用性将使几个正在进行的和未来的与结构地震响应相关的研究项目能够进行实验验证。 在结构实验室安装振动台将补充现有的分析研究重点，并将为未来结构动力学实验的广泛项目奠定基础。 ***
