摘要: This sixth volume of Research Progress and Accomplishments highlights many of these advances, starting with an overview of the multidisciplinary center approach in earthquake engineering that MCEER has pioneered. The 14 papers that follow provide selected detailed examples of how MCEER research is fulfilling its vision to achieve earthquake resilient communities through its activities. The papers are presented in groups according to major areas of activity. First are the Overarching Center-wide Cross Program Research Activities, whose outcomes provide support to and further integrate the other three major research areas. The 'Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Lifeline Systems' research focuses on the development of analytical, experimental and empirical procedures to evaluate and enhance the seismic resilience of lifeline systems. The 'Seismic Retrofit of Acute Care Facilities' research aims to quantify the influence of various seismic response modification technologies to protect structural and nonstructural systems and components in acute care facilities from the effects of earthquakes. The 'Emergency Response and Recovery' research deals primarily with developing post-event response and recovery strategies to enhance resilience through improving the rapidity with which impacts are identified, resources are mobilized and critical systems are restored when earthquakes strike, as well as through improving the effectiveness of community recovery strategies that are used following earthquake disasters. Research in the 'Seismic Vulnerability of the Highway System' concentrates on developing formal loss estimation technologies and methodologies; analysis, design, detailing and retrofitting technologies for special bridges; response modification technologies; and soil and foundation behavior and ground motion studies for large bridges.
