Education & Technology Transfer Activities: 2004
Geophysics 2006: Conference on Applied Geophysics | |||||||||
Status |
| ||||||||
Sequential Number | ETT145 | ||||||||
Matching Research Agency | Florida Department of Transportation | ||||||||
Principal Investigator |
| ||||||||
Student Involvement | Students will coauthor and present research papers focused on non-destructive investigative technologies. | ||||||||
Project Objective | The principle objective of the conference is to demonstrate that geophysical technologies decrease costs and improve safety. | ||||||||
Project Abstract | Graduate and undergraduate students will assist in the planning of the conference. They will also be responsible for the coordinating the electronic flow of conference papers (between authors/reviewers/editors), and will assist with the compilation of the conference proceedings. They will also coauthor and present papers. PI Anderson is the Publication Chair and serves on all main conference committees. | ||||||||
Anticipated Benefits | The main benefit is related to "technology transfer". The case studies and overview papers presented at Geophysics will encourage DOT engineers to use geophysical imaging technologies where appropriate. | ||||||||
Modal Orientation | Non-destructive/and non-invasive imaging. | ||||||||
Milestones |
| ||||||||
Relationship to other Research/Projects | UMR faculties are engaged in a number of externally-funded projects that involve the non-destructive imaging of engineered structures and non-invasive site characterization. | ||||||||
Technology Transfer Activities | Expertise with respect to acquisition, processing, interpretation and application of geophysical technologies will be shared via publications and presentations. | ||||||||
Transportation Research Board Keywords | non-destructive imaging, non-invasive imaging, technology transfer, education. | ||||||||
