  • Microwave scattering from surf zone waves

    Creator:
    Catalán Mondaca, Patricio A.
    Abstract:
    Wave breaking in the surf zone is an important forcing mechanism on the generation of nearshore currents and in the driving of sediment transport. At the same time, wave breaking can have significant spatial and temporal variability that needs to be accounted for in the description of nearshore processes. Remote...

  • Coastal Soil and Structure Behavior during Earthquake-Tsunami Multi-Hazards

    Creator:
    Qiu, Yingqing
    Abstract:
    Coastal multi-hazards, i.e., earthquakes followed by tsunamis, induce severe damage to coastal infrastructure. The multi-hazards can cause soil liquefaction, which is one of the major concerns for evaluating sediments transport potential and structure failure mechanisms. The objectives for this work is threefold. First, to build and validate a soil numerical...

  • Cross-laminated timber engineering : improvement and application

    Creator:
    Kramer, Anthonie
    Abstract:
    The development of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panel technology has opened up new opportunities for wood in tall buildings. Several characteristics including seismic performance and speed of construction have raised interest among designers. As CLT gains acceptance in the industry, alternative structural solutions need to be investigated to improve performance of...

  • Evaluating safety at Oregon‘s isolated, high-speed, signalized intersections

    Creator:
    Kopper, Neil H.
    Abstract:
    Isolated approaches at signalized intersections with posted speed limits of 45 mph or greater generally experience large numbers of rear-end and angle collisions. A combination of less attentive drivers, high operating speeds, and less than ideal intersection characteristics can result in crash frequencies well above expected rates. A number of...

  • Behavior of a 1/6th scale, two-story, wood framed residential structure under surge wave loading

    Creator:
    Wilson, Jebediah
    Abstract:
    The goal of this study was to develop an understanding of the nature of surge wave loading on wood framed residential structures for a variety of building configurations and test conditions. The objectives of the study were: (1) to measure forces on a 1/6th scale wood framed residential structure, (2)...
