  6. Researchers (Nationwide) (International) NSF Sponsors (Washington DC) NEESR Grants MOM Support for Infrastructure Access NEESinc (Davis) NEESit (San Diego) NEES Shared Use Infrastructure[Operated by NEESinc] Organization of NEES’ Pieces

  7. Liquefiable fill soils(NEES@UTexas andNEES@UCDavis) Container crane response(NEES@Buffalo) Wharf response (NEES@UIUC) Example Research: ‘06 GC on Ports • Multi-disciplinary problem of national and international importance • Multi-site, multi-partner team (engineering, logistics, social sciences) • Buy-in and involvement from community from proposal stage • Systems approach that emphasizes implementation Risk Framework: Probability of Berth Downtime Socio-Economic Impact & Decision Support

  8. NEESinc Mission 1: Innovation Revolutionize earthquake engineering research and education by: • Providing access to the world's largest and most advanced experimental facilities • Operating an IT infrastructure capable of integrating lab experiments with computer models • Motivating the research community to collaborate using a shared, web-based environment • Fostering the open exchange of data and information among researchers and practicing engineers • Creating active programs of education and outreach committed to improving seismic safety

  9. NEESinc Mission 2: Earthquake Risk Mitigation • Engineering/Construction of Resilient Infrastructure is Best Strategy: • Complements land use, earthquake preparedness, and emergency response • Great strides have been made but Cost-Effectiveness is still an issue • From prescriptive codes to performance-based design • Success Requires: • Effective Design Tools for Hazard ID Coordination • Cost-Effective Engineering Solutions Research • Political Skill and Will Leadership • Good Construction/Maintenance Practices Partnership
