项目摘要

The US/Japan Workshop on Urban Earthquake Hazard Reduction will be held March 23 - 26, 2003 in Maui, Hawaii. It is being convened jointly by the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute and the Japan Institute of Social Safety Science (ISSS) and will focus on the complexity of urban disasters and their manifestations for emergency response, sheltering, loss of utilities, their economic and social impacts, and the recovery process. Reflecting the complexity and interrelationship of factors in urban disasters, the participation is uniquely multidisciplinary, reflecting the diversity of knowledge and skills necessary to urban disaster preparedness, mitigation, response, relief and recovery. Previous workshops dealing with urban earthquake hazard reduction have reinforced the development of a strong bond between the research and professional communities in the United States and Japan and have encouraged collaborative relationships between US and Japan. This collaborative research has enriched the US science and engineering communities by introducing new perspectives and methods into research activities, ultimately providing new tools to professional engineers, architects, planners, and emergency managers. It is anticipated that this workshop will further contribute to advances in research and practice and to our ability to better prepare for and respond to future earthquakes and other extreme events.

美国/日本城市地震减灾研讨会将于2003年3月23日至26日在夏威夷毛伊岛举行。该会议由地震工程研究所和日本社会安全科学研究所（ISSS）联合召开，重点关注城市灾害的复杂性及其在应急响应、避难、公用事业损失、经济和社会影响方面的表现，以及恢复过程。此次活动具有独特的多学科性，反映了城市灾害因素的复杂性和相互关系，反映了城市防灾、减灾、响应、救灾和恢复所需的知识和技能的多样性。此前有关城市地震减灾的研讨会加强了美国和日本研究界和专业界之间牢固联系的发展，并鼓励了美国和日本之间的合作关系。这项合作研究通过在研究活动中引入新的视角和方法，丰富了美国科学和工程界，最终为专业工程师、建筑师、规划师和应急管理人员提供了新工具。预计本次研讨会将进一步促进研究和实践的进步，并提高我们更好地准备和应对未来地震和其他极端事件的能力。
