Physical Modeling of Progressive Damage and Failure of Wood-Frame Coastal Residential Structures Due to Waves and Surge Forces

Creator:: Duncan, Sean M.
Abstract:: A physical model study was performed to examine the forces and response of 1:6 scale wood-frame coastal residential structures subjected to storm surge and waves. An on-grade and an elevated specimen were tested and exposed to regular waves with varying water depths and wave heights to simulate Hurricane Sandy’s conditions....

Prototype-Scale Physical Model Study of Wave Attenuation by an Idealized Mangrove Forest of Moderate Cross-shore Width

Creator:: Kelty, Kiernan M.
Abstract:: The use of natural and nature-based features for coastal hazard mitigation, particularly emergent vegetation such as mangrove forests, have become increasingly popular. However, the protection that these systems can provide has not been fully quantified for engineering design, and the uncertainties in parameterized equations have not been fully defined. In...

Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard and Damage Assessment of the Built Environment : Applied at Seaside, Oregon

Creator:: Park, Hyoungsu
Abstract:: Damage estimates to the built environment from tsunamis are important for disaster mitigation, including planning emergency response and recovery. This dissertation evaluates the damage states of buildings in a small urban coastal city, Seaside, Oregon, from tsunami hazards generated by a Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) event. This study is separated...

Tsunami inundation : estimating damage and predicting flow properties

Creator:: Wiebe, Dane Michael
Abstract:: The 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku tsunami events have shown the destructive power of tsunami inundation to the constructed environment in addition to the tragic loss of life. A comparable event is expected for the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) which will impact the west coast of North America. Research...

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...

Hydraulic experiments on impact forces from tsunami-driven debris

Creator:: Ko, Harrison T.
Abstract:: Impact by an idealized shipping container on a column were observed for tsunami flow in a large-scale wave flume modeled at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory at Oregon State University. Two specimen types, aluminum and acrylic, were tested; and each specimen was tested in two orientations, longitudinal and transverse....

Performance-Based Design Methodology for Using Emergent Vegetation to Mitigate Wave Overtopping

Creator:: Ostrow, Kayla
Abstract:: To facilitate the design of Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) for flood protection, this thesis expands an existing engineering design methodology to NNBF systems. The existing approach is a Level III reliability method for the performance-based design of traditional coastal engineering systems. The expanded methodology incorporates uncertainties inherent to both...

Observations and prediction of intermittent sediment suspension in the surf zone

Creator:: Yoon, Hyun Doug
Abstract:: In this dissertation the interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment suspension and transport, and morphological evolution in the surf zone was investigated with a large-scale laboratory experiment data, CROss-Shore Sediment Transport Experiment (CROSSTEX). The data set included comprehensive measurements of water surface elevation, fluid velocity, sediment concentration, and morphology for irregular waves...

Laboratory Observations of Tsunami-Driven Debris Damming with Comparison to ASCE 7-22 Minimum Design Loads

Creator:: Doyle, Kellen C.
Abstract:: Tsunami inundation of coastal communities can impose a wide array of forces on the built environment. Forces generated by tsunami-driven debris damming have the potential to cause failure of coastal structures and further accumulate flow-entrained debris. Since tsunami-resilient design standards were adopted by ASCE in 2016, debris damming considerations have...

Describing Tsunami Inundation and Debris Motion using Optical Measurement Methods in a Large-Scale Wave Basin

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew Robert
Abstract:: This thesis consists of two papers in manuscript format. The first paper presents optical measurements of tsunami inundation through an urban waterfront in a laboratory wave basin. The physical model was constructed at 1:50 scale and was an idealization of the town of Seaside, Oregon. The paper presents an analysis...
