  • 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...

  • Soil-bridge interaction during long-duration earthquake motions

    Creator:
    Romney, Kyle T.
    Abstract:
    Earthquake engineering analyses are often performed using shallow, crustal earthquake motions (e.g., 1940 El Centro). However, large areas of the world are subject to subduction zone earthquake motions (e.g., the Pacific Northwest). A subduction zone earthquake motion is characterized by its long duration (e.g., strong shaking lasts for more than...
