Seismic performance and collapse assessments of reinforced concrete lateral- force resisting systems

Creator:: Buniya, Mustafa Kamil
Abstract:: Nonlinear response history analysis (NRHA) is increasingly becoming more accessible and prevalent in research and practice. As the accuracy of the NRHA results depends on the ground motion characteristics and the robustness of the numerical model, research has focused on the development of guidance for performance-based seismic design and assessment...

Numerical Analysis of a Spine as a Retrofit of a Moment-Resisting Frame

Creator:: Rivera Torres, David M.
Abstract:: Steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) are widely used in the United States to resist seismic forces. MRFs have many advantages, including architectural versatility, vetted member and connection detailing requirements, and high ductility for special MRFs (SMRF). However, MRFs require large members to meet story drift criteria. Moreover, strong-column-weak-beam requirements can result...

Cyclic performance of connections used in hybrid cross-laminated timber

Creator:: Mahdavifar, Vahid
Abstract:: One of the recent additions to the panoply of engineered wood products is cross-laminated timber (CLT). CLT is a prefabricated, large-scale, solid wood panel that consists of multiple layers of lumbers stacked together, with each layer arranged perpendicular to the next layer, glued with structural grade adhesives, and pressed. The...

Lateral Load Path Analysis : Practical Methods for Light-Frame Modular Structures

Creator:: Huynh, Thanh Q.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study are to use SAP2000 to investigate lateral load paths and system behavior in a modular, light-frame wood structure by investigating different foundation configurations and to further develop and validate existing modeling techniques of shear wall elements based on the Perforated Shear Wall Method. The modeling...

GOSEP: Georeferenced Oregon Soil Engineering Properties

Creator:: Dutille, Victoria L.
Abstract:: Geotechnical engineers design and analyze the interface between the natural and built environments, often based on uncertain and inherently variable data due to the nature of the building material, soil. Engineers must estimate the subsurface conditions at a site using historical, in-situ, and laboratory testing data. However, only discrete representative...

The Number of Lanes and Crash Injury Severities of Commercial Motor Vehicle Drivers: Advanced Econometric Models and Applications

Creator:: Kim, Jaekook
Abstract:: Considering the deadly impacts of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) crashes on road safety, many previous studies have put in efforts to find the determinants of CMV crash injury severities. However, studies examining the impact of the different number of lanes on CMV crash injury severities are lacking. Besides, the importance...

Risk and reliability associated with use and reuse of vertical formwork

Creator:: Das, Amrutha
Abstract:: Concrete formwork is a common type of temporary structure used on construction projects. Due to difficulties in considering actual construction site implications during formwork design, assessments of formwork integrity are often made in the field by site personnel based on subjective visual inspection. The use and re-use of concrete formwork...

An Investigation of Student Cognitive Engagement in the STEM Classroom—A Compilation of Faculty and Student Perspectives

Creator:: Barlow, Allyson J.
Abstract:: Student engagement has been the focus of much engineering education research, in large part due to its ties to student learning. Widely considered to be a meta-construct, student engagement is often broken down into behavioral, emotional, and cognitive components. Reasons for ongoing research on student cognitive engagement are twofold: educators...

Modeling Unobserved Heterogeneity and the Injury Severities of Truck Drivers in Run-Off-Road (ROR) Crashes: Econometric Methods and Applications

Creator:: Al-Bdairi, Nabeel Saleem Saad
Abstract:: Recent statistics regarding large truck crashes reveal that fatality rates of large trucks per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and fatality rates per 1,000 registered vehicles are higher than those for passenger vehicles. These statistics underscore the need for greater efforts by safety professionals to help mitigate the impacts...

Probabilistic Multi-hazard Earthquake-Tsunami Structural Risk Assessment Framework

Creator:: Alam, Mohammad Shafiqual
Abstract:: Catastrophic earthquake and tsunami events that resulted in significant loss of life and property over the past two decades have raised the global awareness regarding the need to understand the response of communities and their built environment to multi-hazard extreme events. In recognition to this impending threat to the coastal...
