Investigation of Multi-constellation RTK GNSS Survey Productivity and Coordinate Accuracy

Creator:: Jamieson, Marian H.
Abstract:: This study evaluates the productivity and accuracy of surveys completed with single-base real-time kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) using four different GNSS constellation combinations: (1) GPS-only, (2) GPS+GLONASS, (3) GPS+Galileo+BeiDou, and (4) GPS+GLONASS+Galileo+BeiDou. For this comparison, we set up a test site consisting of 20 stations ranging with...

Finite element modeling of reinforced concrete bridge columns with steel jackets using plastic hinge integration

Creator:: Carlton, Adam K.
Abstract:: In recent years confinement requirements for concrete columns have increased in seismic regions. Steel jackets are one way to confine reinforced concrete columns. The increased confinement provides additional strength and ductility for the columns during seismic events. For reinforced concrete columns with steel jackets, there are different section properties in...

Analysis of moving loads using force-based finite elements

Creator:: Kidarsa, Adrian
Abstract:: An analysis method for moving loads computes the internal demand history in a structural member at integration points of force-based finite elements as opposed to the end forces of a refined displacement-based finite element mesh. The force-based formulation satisfies strong equilibrium of internal section forces with the element end forces...

3-D finite element modeling in OpenSees for bridge live-load girder distribution factors

Creator:: Scoggins, Luke A.
Abstract:: A generalized, three-dimensional, finite element bridge model was created in order to efficiently and accurately assess live-load girder distribution factors for a variety of bridge types. This model shortens the time required by bridge analysts to develop individual finite element models for bridges of varying geometries. The creation of the...

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...

Finite element modeling of gusset plate failure using OpenSees

Creator:: Walker, Andrew J.
Abstract:: The collapse of the I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis, MN in 2007 prompted an investigation into the design and inspection of the steel truss bridges. Further investigation into the collapse revealed that a gusset plate experienced sway buckling, causing the bridge failure. This bridge failure motivated research into the analysis and...

Performance of wood frame wall with thin shell ECC shear panel

Creator:: Lewis, Michael C.
Abstract:: The overall goal of this study was to evaluate an alternative to traditional wood framed shear wall construction. This study introduced the innovative idea of using a water and seismic damage resistant, wood-concrete- composite (WCC) construction instead of an all-wood design. The WCC design consisted of a thin shell of...

A Multivariate Comparison of Drone-Based Structure from Motion and Drone-Based Lidar for Dense Topographic Mapping Applications

Creator:: Simpson, Chase H.
Abstract:: Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), also known as drones, are an increasingly popular method of collecting surveying and mapping data. Two common drone-based mapping techniques are lidar and structure from motion (SfM) photogrammetry, and a frequently-heard (yet nearly impossible to answer) question is: “which is better?” The most common metric for...

Bridge Model Parameter Sensitivity in Pushover and Nonlinear Time History Analysis

Creator:: Johnsohn, Karryn E.
Abstract:: The aim of this research is to understand and quantify the modeling differences between CSiBridge and OpenSees, and to determine sensitive model parameters. When designing bridges for the high seismic region of California, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) performs nonlinear time history analysis of their bridge models. For three-dimensional...
