Title: nees@Buffalo
Description:

NEES@Buffalo, SEESL, NEES, University at Buffalo, The University at California, The University at Buffalo's (UB) Structural Engineering and Earthquake Simulation Laboratory (SEESL) will be a key node in a nationwide earthquake engineering collaboratory - the National Science Foundation's George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES). In this network, earthquake engineers and students located at different institutions will be able to share resources, collaborate on testing, and exploit new computational technologies.
