Damage due to hurricans Katrina and Rita

A team of researches from CIRC are participating in damage identification missions to the areas affected by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Support for these initiatives is provided by National Science Foundation, the Mid-America Earthquake Center, the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST), the Insurance Commissioner of Puerto Rico, and the Department of Civil Engineering and Surveying at UPRM. The researchers involved are Luis A. Godoy (Pi NSF, NIST), Ricardo R. López and Ali Saffar (NSF, MAE Center, NIST), Ismael Pagán and Miguel Pando (NSF).

LACCEI

Under the leadership of I. Pagán-Trinidad, CIRC has been active in the creation of LACCEI, the Latin American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions, which is now an established institution linking universities from Latin America, the Caribbean, North America, and Spain.
