The
US-PRC Collaboration on Earthquake Engineering Research enables selected US

engage in cooperative research activities. Research topics include:
Sensing and monitoring systems for disaster prevention and decision support
Performance-based design, analysis and structural control of urban area infrastructures to resist earthquake hazard
"Smart" structure and multiple hazard resilient technologies
