This breakout session, moderated by Jordan and Roblee, discusses vital topics in earthquake resilience, focusing on interface strategies, collaboration opportunities with the NGA, and the PEER Lifelines project in relation to SCEC. Key aspects include the funding process for research proposals due on 11/17, collaboration specifics between PEER, SCEC, and USGS, and the concept of index buildings for effective data dissemination. Participants will explore collaborative proposals in areas such as ANSS instrumentations, basin modeling, and cross-disciplinary partnering among earthquake researchers.

Issue 2A Breakout Moderators: Jordan & Roblee Recorder: Nigbor
Issues • Interface strategies • Needed resources • Collaboration opportunities
NGA • A PEER Lifelines project, not SCEC – there is some confusion • Partnership between PEER Lifelines, SCEC, USGS • Researchers are individuals, some with multiple hats
Funding Processes • SCEC • Research agenda discussed in September at annual meeting • RFP is out • Proposals due 11/17 • Review by planning committee • PEER-Lifelines • Project & outcome-specific funding • No set deadline • SCEC collaborations could approach PEER for funding, but too late for this year
Index Building Concept • Standard set of model structures (real or hypothetical • Could be useful in collaborative efforts & for dissemination of hazard/risk info • PEER testbeds (2 buildings/2 bridges) could be examples • An idea for a collaborative proposal? • NSF/ITR • USGS
ANSS • ANSS is a possible area for collaboration • 40% of funding is earmarked for building instrumentation • USGS is now defining priorities • ANSS-instrumented buildings may become “index buildings”
Other issues • Basin modeling • Collaboration with MAE & MCEER • How to pair individual earth science-earthquake engineer researchers?
