ABSTRACT

The second U.S.-Iran seismic workshop was held on June 29-July 1, 2009, at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering, Irvine, California. The workshop was supported by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center, and Sharif University of Technology. The theme of this workshop was Improving Earthquake Mitigation through Innovations and Applications in Seismic Science, Engineering, Communication, and Response. This report contains the collection of the papers presented at the 2009 workshop, and participants' recommendations for future collaboration between U.S. and Iranian earthquake scientists and engineers.

INTRODUCTION

2008 Seismic Workshop

Following an extended period of planning, on June 8-9, 2008, a U.S.-Iran invitational workshop on the "Seismic Performance of Adobe and Masonry Structures" was held at

Sharif University of Technology in

Tehran. The workshop was organized

by Sharif University of Technology (SUT), in collaboration with the U.S.

National Academy of Sciences and the

Pacific Earthquake Engineering

Research Center (PEER), UC Berkeley.

The workshop involved specialists

from 14 Iranian institutions and an

American delegation comprising

Daniel Abrams of the University of

Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; William Anderson representing the U.S. National Academy of Sciences; Yousef Bozorgnia of PEER, UC Berkeley; Ahmad Hamid of Drexel University; Robert Hamilton representing the U.S. National Academy of Sciences; Richard Klingner of the University of Texas at Austin; and Fred Webster of Fred Webster and Associates in Menlo Park,

California.

The topic of adobe and masonry vulnerability was selected because of the extensive damage to this form of construction from earthquakes in Iran, including the Bam earthquake of December 26, 2003. Twenty-three technical papers were presented. The workshop concluded with a panel session that identified topics for future research collaboration. The workshop was followed with a one-day public seminar on June 10, 2008, on "Seismic Hazard Reduction," also held at Sharif University. In the last session of the public seminar, the participants suggested research topics for future seismic cooperation. Those topics are listed in the appendix of this report. Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, June 9, 2008 vi2009 Seismic Workshop The second U.S.-Iran seismic workshop was held on June 29-July 1, 2009, at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering, Irvine,

California. The workshop was

supported by the U.S. Nationa l Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER), and Sharif University of Technology (SUT). The theme of this workshop was Improving Earthquake Mitigation through Innovations and Applications in Seismic Science, Engineering, Communication, and Response. Numerous U.S. and Iranian earthquake engineers and scientists participated in the workshop and gave presentations. The agenda of the workshop is attached. The papers presented at the workshop were edited by Yousef Bozorgnia (PEER, UC Berkeley), Sanaz Rezaeian (PEER, UC Berkeley), and William Anderson (U.S. National Academy of

Sciences).

On July 1, 2009, the final day of the workshop, the participants had an open discussion about possibilities for future cooperation between seismic experts from both countries. A summary of the open discussion is attached. We thank all participants of the workshops from both countries for their time and efforts. These workshops in 2008 and 2009 would not have been possible without the continuous support and encouragement of Glenn Schweitzer of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Dr.

Tabatabaee

(SUT), Dr. Vafai (SUT), and Dr. Pak (SUT) spent an enormous amount of time coordinating the efforts of the Iranian seismic researchers. We gratefully appreciate their time, efforts, and cooperation. Sanaz Rezaeian (PEER, UC Berkeley) diligently assisted in organizing the proceedings of the workshop; her efforts are greatly appreciated. Merc Fox (U.S. National

Academy of Sciences) carefully worked on all de

tails of the logistics for the 2009 workshop; we appreciate her dedication.

SUMMARY OF THE WORKSHOP CONCLUDING SESSION

On July 1, 2009, the final day of the U.S.-Iran Seismic Workshop, the participants had an open discussion about possibilities for the future cooperation between seismic experts from both countries. The following topics were recommended for future seismic cooperation by the workshop participants: I. Priority List of Technical Topics for Seismic Cooperation: 1. Seismic performance and retrofit of adobe and masonry buildings, especially residential and school buildings, including a pilot progr am for implementing candidate retrofit designs. 2.

Multidisciplinary seismic risk reduction of lifelines, including lifelines components, structures, systems and networks.

3. Seismic risk reduction of geological and geotechnical hazards such as liquefaction and landslides. 4. Integrated multidisciplinary seismic risk management, including reducing the socio- economic impacts of earthquakes, emergency response management, public risk management and policy. 5. Development of a global risk evaluation system encompassing the derivation of urban and regional vulnerability functions (city inventory and human loss). 6. Earth science, paleoseismological, earthquake source, and seismic hazard studies. 7. Other seismic issues of interest to both the U.S. and Iranian earthquake research communities. II. Framework of Technical Cooperation. The following was recommended by the participants: 1. Scientific and engineering interactions among researchers, practitioners, academic institutions, and other research and educational organizations in the two countries are encouraged. 2. Creation of a non-governmental joint committee to draft planning details for seismic cooperation. The responsibilities of the joint committee should include:

Recommendations on duration, scope, budget, potential funding agencies, etc., for the seismic cooperative program.

Creation of sub-committees for each of the technical topics listed above, and coordination of their activities. 3. Sharif University of Technology and the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center, together with other interested scientific organizations in the two countries, will act as points of contact in promoting the process of seismic cooperation as listed above. xi
