This award provides funding to the University of California-San Diego under the direction of Dr. Ahmed-W.M Elgamal, for the support of a Combined Research-Curriculum Development project entitled, "Interactive Web-Based Experimental and Computational Learning Environments for Earthquake Engineering Research and Education." This project will integrate state-of-the-art earthquake engineering experimental and computational research into the undergraduate and graduate educational process. The proposed developments will employ Internet web-based technologies to allow for real-time video monitoring, control, and execution of appropriate cutting-edge experimental research efforts in earthquake engineering. Such setups include large shake-table earthquake experiments, centrifuge geomechanics tests, and dynamic tests of actual large buildings. Course modules will be developed to incorporate these unique experiments and associated computational-simulation codes at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Appropriate quantitative instructional measures will be employed to dictate the direction and achieve the most effective educational goals. A multi-disciplinary approach will involve researchers from Earthquake Engineering, and appropriate Internet Networking and Instructional Technology experts. UCSD and Caltech conduct major earthquake experimentaion efforts, and constitutes an optimal environment for development of the proposed education and research objectives. Signicant collaboration opportunities will be facilitated through interaction between earthquake engineering and ongoing Internet-based research at the UCSD San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC). On the national scene, dissemination will be facilitated through the the three US national earthquake centers (PEER, MAE, and MCEER).

该奖项在Ahmed-W.M Elgamal博士的指导下为加利福尼亚大学迭戈分校提供了资金，以支持一个题为“地震工程研究和教育的基于互动网络的实验和计算学习环境”的合并研究。 该项目将将最新的地震工程实验和计算研究集成到本科和研究生教育过程中。 拟议的开发将采用基于Internet的基于Internet的技术来实时视频监控，控制和执行地震工程中适当的尖端实验研究工作。 这样的设置包括大型摇式地震实验，离心地球力学测试以及实际大型建筑物的动态测试。将开发课程模块以在本科和研究生级别结合这些独特的实验和相关的计算模拟代码。 将采取适当的定量教学措施来决定方向并实现最有效的教育目标。 多学科的方法将涉及地震工程的研究人员，以及适当的互联网网络和教学技术专家。 UCSD和Caltech进行了重大的地震实验努力，构成了拟议教育和研究目标的发展的最佳环境。 通过地震工程和正在进行的基于Internet的研究，圣地亚哥超级计算机中心（SDSC）之间的互动之间的互动将促进重要的合作机会。 在国家舞台上，将通过美国三个国家地震中心（Peer，Mae和McEer）促进传播。
