CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR DESIGN AND TESTING OF NONSTRUCTURAL BUILDING COMPONENTS
One aspect of the Pathways project is the development of cyberinfrastructure tools for use with nonstructural elements such as building facade systems and plumbing systems. The first cyberinfrastructure tool developed for the project is the Synchronizer, a web-based application that is able to assist project members in data organization with NEES data repository. Synchronizer allows project members to connect to NEES data repository to download and upload data in bulk. The application automatically checks for updated files with options to replace, rename, or to keep them all. The application also allows the project administrator to put different restrictions to each project member in accessing the files and sub-directories. Synchronizer uses Mozilla Fire Fox for obtaining GAsession ID cookie and Internet Explorer for executing the application. The second tool that will be developed for the project is the DataFinder. This tool will be able to perform data mining on NEES data repository and to provide user-friendly interface to practicing engineers and researchers for retrieving data in a suitable format. The application will have features to compare the retrieved material properties with selected material models available in the code, including the stress-strain relations and forcedisplacement responses. The development of Synchronizer application was completed and currently is under final testing. The development of DataFinder is in progress and expected to be completed in summer 2009.
