The science popularization base for land traffic prevention and disaster prevention and mitigation of Southwest Jiaotong University was approved by the first national transportation science popularization base

On August 30, the science and science and science and technology department of the Southwest Jiaotong University was approved by the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Science and Technology as a national transportation science popularization base. The base relies on the construction of the National Engineering Research Center of the Southwest Jiaotong University of Land Transport and Geological Disaster. The National Engineering Research Center has a world -class research platform group, including the world's first three -way six -free large -scale earthquake simulation platform, the world's largest border wind tunnel, Asia's largest falling stone shock test platform, large centrifugal machine, mudslite simulation simulation Platform and other advanced equipment.

The popular science base is targeted at major traffic infrastructure such as railways and highways in complex and difficult geological mountains. Including three popular science pavilions including earthquake disasters, strong wind disasters, and mountain disaster prevention control. At present, the total area of ​​popular science bases is 8,000 square meters, of which 6,000 square meters of indoor venues.

It is reported that since the operation of the science popularization base, the average annual reception visit can reach 10,000, and it has become a window for publicity and exchanges of Southwest Jiaotong University. High reputation and influence.

The activities in the popular science base are diverse and rich in content, including a variety of distinctive immersive experiences. For example, multi -functional large -scale intelligent seismic experience rooms can experience the power of different seismic strength and intuitively experience the effect of earthquake resistance. The influence of bridges and large public buildings understands wind resistance measures; mudslides VR video can feel mountain disasters and disaster relief measures. The popular science base also holds various competitions every year to promote popular science to improve the level of the base.

The popular science base stated that under the leadership of the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Sichuan Provincial Department of Transportation, the Department of Science and Technology, the Development and Reform Commission, and the Chinese Highway Society, it will always be "promoted the spirit of the two roads and promotes the social value and construction achievements of the transportation industry. The goal of creating land disaster prevention popularization highlands, improving the awareness of disaster prevention and minusing and improving the public ", and striving to build a benchmark for the Copoyren in the new era.
