Buffalo, NY: University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, Multidisciplinary Simulation Center for Non-Conventional Building Blast (MSCNBB), 2006. Presumed First Edition thus, likely one of multiple originals. DVD. 1 DVD, This contains a proposal to the Predictive Science Academic Alliance Program to establish a Multidisciplinary Center for Non-conventional Building Blast. The mission of the proposed center was to develop the science, tools and technologies needed to move modeling and simulation of complex non-linear and large scale phenomena from the era of the "heroic" one shot explorations to routine predictions for simulation based design. The University proposed to accomplish this in the context of the development of simulation tools for accident resistant infrastructure essential for the new and expanded usage of liquefied natural gases and hydrogen--an application of great societal interest. In addition to the proposal, support letters from Praxair, CUBRC, and the Vice President for Research for the University at Buffalo. More
