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...

A Methodological Approach for Structural Health Monitoring of Mass-Timber Buildings Under Construction

Creator:: Baas, Esther J.
Abstract:: As mass-timber building construction rises around the globe, there exists the need to verify the long-term, in-situ behavior and performance of these structural systems. Structural health monitoring (SHM), generally defined as a damage detection strategy consisting of a network of sensors, a data acquisition system, and algorithms for data analysis,...

An Efficient Workflow and Accuracy Assessment for ICESat-2 and Multispectral Imagery Fusion for Bathymetric Mapping

Creator:: Babbel, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: Interest in mapping bathymetry from multispectral satellite imagery has grown steadily since the 1970s. Notwithstanding the significant advancements made during this time, one limitation is that the group of algorithms collectively referred to as Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) generally require “seed depths,” hindering their use for areas lacking reliable reference...

Radar and Optical Remote Sensing of Submesoscale Frontal Features

Creator:: Simpson, Alexandra J.
Abstract:: The coastal region is home to many types of surface fronts that exist on a submesoscale (1-10 $km$). While in situ observations capture point or transect observations of frontal behavior subsurface, their complex spatial patterns can be well-captured using remote sensing techniques, which provide synoptic views of the ocean surface...

New Techniques to Monitor and Characterize Landslide Behavior and Controls Using Digital Terrain Models

Creator:: Senogles, Andrew
Abstract:: Coastal landslides and erosion are major natural hazards resulting in unstable slopes, constituting immense challenges to modern infrastructure. Developing, maintaining, and performing risk assessments of infrastructure on, or close to, these hazards require a detailed understanding of the geophysical processes destabilizing the slope. These efforts start with the collection of...

Regional and Site-Specific Vulnerabilities of the Western Power Grid from a M9.3 Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake

Creator:: Lathrop Eve D.
Abstract:: The likelihood of a Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquake is estimated between 37 to 42% in the next 50 years, leading to strong shaking, liquefaction, landsliding, and other seismic ground failure resulting in major impacts to critical lifelines such as the western power grid. Electrical power is essential for continued...

Influence of Uncertainties in Terrestrial Laser Scanning on Structural Reliability and Bridge Load Rating

Creator:: Loving, Carly K.
Abstract:: To ensure the safety of the nation’s bridges, the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) require all bridges to undergo routine load rating analyses to assess their structural capacity. Accurate geometric information for each structure is necessary for load rating analyses. This information is typically ascertained from as-built plans. Still, when...

Use of Controlled Blasting to Quantify the Dynamic, In-Situ, Nonlinear Inelastic Response of Soils

Creator:: Jana, Amalesh
Abstract:: The seismic response of deep deposits of liquefiable and cyclic-softening susceptible soils has presented the geotechnical profession with significant engineering challenges. Strong ground motions may serve to soften soils under cyclic shear, trigger liquefaction, and produce damaging displacements as a consequence. This study improves the understanding of the in-situ, nonlinear,...

Extreme Wave Runup and Runup Variability on Beaches

Creator:: Li, Chuan
Abstract:: Wave runup is an important physical process that affects nearshore sediment transport, coastal erosion, and flooding. Large and unexpected runup events can also be dangerous to beach goers. Extreme runup statistics are essential parameters used in engineering design of marine structures and in coastal management. Although the study of runup...
