An analysis of wave forces on prototype walls under tsunami loading

Creator:: Oshnack, Mary Elizabeth
Abstract:: This thesis is comprised of two manuscripts based on a laboratory experiment conducted to examine realistic wave forcing on a vertical wall subjected to tsunami loading. The first manuscript examined tsunami force and pressure distributions on a rigid wall that was fronted by a small seawall. Six different seawall heights...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: would also like to acknowledge Milo Clauson of Oregon State University, Francisco Galan of San Jose

Influence of macro-roughness on tsunami runup & forces

Creator:: Bridges, Kerri-Jane
Abstract:: This thesis is comprised of a manuscript based on a laboratory experiment run in the Tsunami Wave Basin as part of a research project funded by the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation called Housesmash. The purpose of the experiment was to better understand the role of the urban environment, represented...

Developing tools to improve tsunami resilient design of coastal structures

Creator:: Thomas, Seth Alan
Abstract:: Over the last decade the world has seen three major tsunamis strike the coasts of Indonesia, Samoa, and Chile. These tsunamis have caused significant losses of life and property on the coastal cities of these and nearby countries. The NEES (Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation) Housesmash project was created to...

Thermal Degradation of Lateral Yield Strength of Nailed Wood Connections

Creator:: Sinha, Arijit, Gupta, Rakesh, and Nairn, John A.
Abstract:: This study investigated the effect of exposure to elevated temperature on the yield strength of single-shear nail connections when subjected to lateral loading. Solid sawn lumber and laminated veneer lumber were used as framing members and two different thicknesses of both oriented strand board and plywood were used as the...

In-plane Creep Behavior of Cross-laminated Timber and Mass Plywood Panels: A Methodology to Evaluate the Long-term Performance of Post-Tensioned Mass Timber Walls

Creator:: Longman, Ryan P.
Abstract:: Post-tensioned (PT) self-centering shear walls were designed to reduce structural damage from seismic activity. However, these lateral force resistant systems experience post-tension loss negatively affecting the re-centering capability due to delayed deformations experienced by engineered wood products over time. The long-term mechanical response of mass-timber panels to in-plane PT loads...

Tsunami Simulation Using OpenSees : Validation of Bridge Response and Exploration of Shallow Water Flow

Creator:: Cressman, Luke R.
Abstract:: The finite element software framework, OpenSees, has been used by researchers to simulate the response of structural and geotechnical systems to earthquake loading. Implementation of the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) has made it possible to simulate hydrodynamic forces through fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in OpenSees. To validate the FSI implementation...

Cross-Laminated Timber-Concrete Composite Floor Systems for Tall Building Design

Creator:: Morrell, Ian
Abstract:: With growing interest in mass timber, especially mass timber panels (MTP), there has been a need to better understand their structural properties. One of the most versatile uses for MTP are as floor systems. Under new code provisions, these floors can be utilized in new and taller building types, but...

Risk and reliability associated with use and reuse of vertical formwork

Creator:: Das, Amrutha
Abstract:: Concrete formwork is a common type of temporary structure used on construction projects. Due to difficulties in considering actual construction site implications during formwork design, assessments of formwork integrity are often made in the field by site personnel based on subjective visual inspection. The use and re-use of concrete formwork...

Tsunami Loading on Coastal Infrastructure

Creator:: Xie, Zhongliang
Abstract:: The safety of coastal infrastructure has been a concern after the Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004 and the Great East Japan Tsunami in 2011. The western coast of the United States is also exposed to tsunami hazards due to the Cascadia subduction zone. Therefore, it is critical to design coastal...
