9602932 Iwan This award supports the participation of 7 US scientists in a US-Japan seminar on Mitigation of Near-Field Earthquake Damage in Urban Areas, to be held in Honolulu, Hawaii from January 5-7, 1998. The co-organizers are Professor Wilfred Iwan of the California Institute of Technology and Professor Kenzo Toki of Kyoto University. The objectives of the seminar are to: identify and record the important lessons learned from the Northridge and Kobe earthquakes as regards near-field ground motions and their effects on buildings; develop a consensus regarding the nature of near-field ground motions and their unique effects on structures of all types; provide guidance for the development of appropriate methods to characterize near-field ground motions for the purpose of structural design; assess the adequacy of current mitigation strategies as they relate to the effects of near- field ground motions; and determine future needs for mitigation research and applications regarding near-field ground motions. Participants are among the most active researchers in the area of earthquake hazard mitigation, and this seminar is expected to establish and nurture collaborative research between US and Japanese scientists who will mutually benefit from these research ties. ***

9602932 Iwan 该奖项支持 7 名美国科学家参加 1998 年 1 月 5 日至 7 日在夏威夷檀香山举行的美日城市地区近场地震损害研讨会。共同组织者是教授加州理工学院的 Wilfred Iwan 和京都大学的 Kenzo Toki 教授。 研讨会的目的是： 确定并记录从北岭和神户地震中汲取的有关近场地面运动及其对建筑物影响的重要教训； 就近场地面运动的性质及其对所有类型结构的独特影响达成共识；为结构设计目的开发表征近场地面运动的适当方法提供指导；评估当前缓解策略是否充分，因为它们与近场地面震动的影响有关；并确定有关近场地震动的缓解研究和应用的未来需求。 参与者都是地震减灾领域最活跃的研究人员，本次研讨会预计将建立和培育美国和日本科学家之间的合作研究，他们将从这些研究联系中互惠互利。 ***
