Out and About: Earthquake Consortium Begins On Nov. 15, Rensselaer marked the formation of the George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES), funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). NEES is a consortium of 15 university research centers across the United States connected via a high-performance Internet network designed to shift the emphasis of earthquake engineering research and education from traditional physical testing to integrated experimentation and model-based simulation. Rensselaer kicked off the completion of its facility upgrade and the beginning of this new phase of the research partnership by hosting a tour of its facility — the Geotechnical Centrifuge Research Center.
