Information Sharing System for Structural Steel Experiments under the Distributed Collaboration Environment

The purpose of this study is to establish a database storing the benchmark test results of structural analysis under severe earthquake motions on Internet. The database type is a distributed collaboration type database. In this study, the central database server in distributed environment has been developed. The central database server stores the metadata of numerical analysis results of structures. The metadata is written in XML following the standard of Dublin Core. Java is used as an interface to enable users to operate the database easily. Accessing the central database server, users can search the metadata, then access the distributed database storing original benchmark test results on Internet.
