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...

Evaluating the Feasibility of Mass Timber as a Mainstream Building Material in the US Construction Market: Industry Perception, Cost Competitiveness, and Environmental Performance Analysis

Creator:: Ahmed, Shafayet
Abstract:: Mass timber has been considered as a promising building material because of its structural rigidity, environmental sustainability, and renewability nature. In Europe and Australia, mass timber materials have been used for many different types of construction such as residential, commercial, education, and industrial. However, the construction practitioners in the U.S....

Beach Dune Subsurface Hydrodynamics and the Formation of Dune Scarps

Creator:: Bond, Hailey G.
Abstract:: The formation of beach scarps is a challenging morphodynamic phenomenon that the coastal community has yet to capture in coastal change models. Understanding scarp formation is crucial to accurately predicting coastal erosion and vulnerability during extreme events, as models without parameters for scarp formation and development severely underpredict total erosion...

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...

Post-wildfire Investigation of Civil Infrastructure Following the 2018 Camp Fire

Creator:: Schulze, Stefanie S.
Abstract:: Wildland-urban interface (WUI) communities, where forested land boundaries or intermixes with infrastructure, are quickly growing in the US. WUI communities have grown substantially from 1990 to 2010, with an increase of 12.7 million houses and 25 million people. Wildfires encroaching on WUI communities can cause damage to both above ground...

Coastal Soil and Structure Behavior during Earthquake-Tsunami Multi-Hazards

Creator:: Qiu, Yingqing
Abstract:: Coastal multi-hazards, i.e., earthquakes followed by tsunamis, induce severe damage to coastal infrastructure. The multi-hazards can cause soil liquefaction, which is one of the major concerns for evaluating sediments transport potential and structure failure mechanisms. The objectives for this work is threefold. First, to build and validate a soil numerical...

Data Assimilation using Synthetic-Aperture Radar Imagery for Bathymetry Inversion at the Mouth of the Columbia River

Creator:: Harper, Spencer H.
Abstract:: Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) imagery can provide wavenumber and frequency data to generate bathymetry estimates for locations where limited access or extreme ocean conditions can make standard bathymetry survey techniques difficult or impossible. The availability of SAR data could allow for regular bathymetry estimates of navigational channels providing insight into dredging...

Monitoring and Prediction of Severe Weather Phenomena through GNSS Meteorology

Creator:: Tahami, Hoda
Abstract:: While primary use of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), various GNSS applications have emerged over the past decades that includes GNSS meteorology. GNSS meteorology is the remote sensing of the atmospheric constituents in the neutral atmosphere – mostly in the troposphere - using GNSS...

Structural Response of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites: Evaluation, Simulation, and Sensitivity Analysis

Creator:: Khlef, Feras L.
Abstract:: The constitutive behavior of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) under mechanical loading is characterized by significant tensile properties that play an essential role in the structural response of several applications in structural engineering. The significance of tensile properties of HPFRCCs in structural engineering is the focus of three manuscripts presented...

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...
