REMINDER: Joint NHERI Wall of Wind/SimCenter Users Workshop, Aug 10-11

[announce at designsafe-ci.org]

*EXPERIMENTAL AND COMPUTATIONAL SIMULATION OF WIND DAMAGE TO STRUCTURES AND
REGIONS*

*August 10-11, 9am - 12:30pm PST*

The FIU NHERI Wall of Wind (WOW) Experimental Facility (EF) and the NHERI
SimCenter will be hosting an *online two-day* user workshop
<https://www.designsafe-ci.org/learning-center/training/workshops/fiu-ef/2020-wow-ef-and-simcenter-workshop/>.
The focus of the workshop is to:

   1. Provide researchers with information on the capabilities of the NHERI
   WOW EF and SimCenter for advanced wind hazard engineering research.
   2. Explore opportunities to use the WOW and SimCenter for unsolicited,
   CAREER, SBIR, and other types of NSF proposals. One session will be
   dedicated to “Preparing Competitive NSF Proposals (including CAREER
   Proposals).”
   3. Describe cross-disciplinary opportunities to leverage the use of
   SimCenter tools in wind engineering and to perform large- and full-scale
   experiments using the NHERI WOW EF.
   4. Provide a platform for collaboration to facilitate
   multi-disciplinary, multi-hazards research.
   5. Provide one-on-one sessions between NHERI team members (from WOW EF
   or SimCenter) and workshop participants to discuss ideas (including
   integrated computational-experimentation research plans) for NSF proposals.


This online workshop will provide participants with valuable information
about the resources and services available at the NHERI WOW EF and the
SimCenter, and how to better engage their capabilities for obtaining NSF
funding for natural hazards mitigation research and other basic science
research. We look forward to welcoming you to our upcoming workshop.
