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?
