Numerical Characterization and Modeling Uncertainty of Frame-Spine and Frame-Spine-FLC Full-Scale Specimens Tested at E-Defense Shake-Table

Creator:: Astudillo, Bryam
Abstract:: The characterization of the seismic performance of structures relies on numerical simulations. However, estimates of seismic response are subject to various sources of uncertainty, including modeling uncertainty. This research estimated the response of two full-scale structural specimens composed of a moment resisting frame, elastic spines, and force-limiting connections (FLC), which...

Fluid Structure Interaction for Cascading Seismic and Tsunami Events using Real-Time Hybrid Simulation

Creator:: Neumann, Christopher R.
Abstract:: While real-time hybrid simulation has been utilized for structures subjected to seismic events for decades, its use in fluid-structure interaction problems is still a novel endeavor. Gathering data for cascading seismic and tsunami events is difficult due to space constraints in existing experimental facilities, complications regarding the application of scaling...

Testing and Modeling of a Cross-Laminated Timber Pier-and-Spandrel Seismic Retrofit Solution for Unreinforced Masonry Buildings

Creator:: Engleson, Renee M.
Abstract:: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an attractive building material because it is renewable, promotes fast installation, and possesses a high strength-to-weight ratio. The use of CLT in seismic applications has become increasingly common with the development of post-tensioned CLT rocking wall lateral force resisting systems (LFRS). The CLT pier-and-spandrel system designed,...

Optimization of Construction Equipment Efficiency and Cost using Simulation and Field Data

Creator:: Kumar, Deepak
Abstract:: Unlike other industries, overall efficiency of construction projects has been growing minimally which directly causes cost overruns of projects. Though reducing idle time and increasing operational efficiency of construction equipment could result in significant cost saving, there is lack of practical knowledge of adjusting operational efficiency and integrating cost and...

Numerical assessment of steel plate shear wall with coupling (SPSW-WC) system design procedure

Creator:: Li, Wennan
Abstract:: The Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) system, is an innovative seismic lateral force resistant system, which has experienced increased use over the last three decades. The SPSW system is composed of boundary elements which anchor web plates that develop diagonal tension fields. A number of SPSW buildings have been built...

Bridge Damage State Detection Based on Strain-Based Wireless Structural Health Monitoring

Creator:: Slaven, Kelli R.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest is at risk for significant seismic and tsunami events, which are capable of severely damaging lifeline transportation infrastructure, particularly bridges. As the bridges in the United States age and begin to show signs of fatigue, the risk for severe damage increases. Proper monitoring and inspection of bridges...

Large–Scale Laboratory Experiment and Numerical Simulation of Tsunami Forces on a Bridge Deck

Creator:: Xiang, Tao
Abstract:: The fluid impact forces on a bridge superstructure in horizontal and vertical directions due to tsunamis represented by solitary waves are investigated through a large-scale laboratory experiment and numerical simulations. The experiment is conducted in a two-dimensional wave basin using a 1:5 scaled reinforced concrete bridge deck model tested under...

Multi-hazard framework and analysis of soil-bridge systems : long duration earthquake and tsunami loading

Creator:: Carey, Trevor J.
Abstract:: During the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, numerous bridge structures were damage or destroyed. The damage to bridge systems was caused by long duration strong ground shaking, tsunami inundation forces, or both. Long duration strong ground shaking from subduction zone earthquakes and the multi-hazard scenario of combined earthquake...

Seismic performance of diagrid steel structures using single and double friction mass dampers

Creator:: Ramadhan, Garlan
Abstract:: The steel diagrid structural system is a recent load bearing and lateral resisting structural system for tall building structures that is relatively unexplored in the western United States. One possible reason for the little use of diagrid systems in earthquake prone regions is the lack of guidelines and application examples...

Effect of subduction zone earthquakes on SDOF bridge models

Creator:: Long, Yicheng
Abstract:: Current bridge design codes do not account for the effects of duration of mega-thrust subduction zone earthquakes. Furthermore, codes and even recent performance-based design methodologies only make use of the peak response quantities (forces, displacements, and ductility demands) and do not account for the increased number of inelastic cycles that...
