000012058 520__ $$2eng$$aThe University of Kentucky and Lanzhou Institute of Seismology in Gansu Province and other institutes of the China Earthquake Administration established a collaborative research program on earthquake science and engineering in 2004; a series of activities have been carried out since then. Three researchers from the Institute visited Kentucky and gave lectures at UK in May 2005. Four researchers from the China Earthquake Administration visited Kentucky and gave lectures at UK in September 2005. Four researchers from UK visited Lanzhou, gave lectures at the Institute, and conducted field investigations in the Lanzhou urban area and Kunlun Mountain in summer 2006. UK received one visiting scholar from LIS in 2006 and 2007, respectively. A reconnaissance field trip was made by Zhenming Wang to the Wenchuan M8.0 earthquake area in June 2008. These activities have enhanced the collaborative relationship between UK and the Institute and understanding of the challenges and issues relative to earthquake science and engineering in the central United States and western China. These activities have resulted in several presentations at professional meetings and publications in professional journals. They have also resulted in joint research proposals to seek funding, both from Chinese and U.S. sources. All these activities have yielded a practical understanding of seismic hazards mitigation in Kentucky and Gansu Province.
