Faculty proposal accepted for
earthquake research study
Dr. Ashraf Elsayed,
Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Dr. Shivan Haran,
Mechanical
Engineering, are the recipients of a $30,000 research grant from
State Farm Insurance that will be directed toward their research
study, "Shear Wave Velocity Profiling and Soil Liquefaction Hazard
Analysis." Jonesboro is situated within the New Madrid Seismic Zone,
an area including eight states, and so is potentially vulnerable to
an earthquake. State Farm also supports earthquake awareness efforts
in Missouri and Tennessee. The grant was awarded yesterday at the
Judd Hill Center, home of the ASU Foundation, Inc. For details, see the
NewsPage release.
