  • Three-dimensional numerical simulation of tsunami-borne debris-loads on bridges 

    Buckle, Ian; Hasanpour, Anis; Istrati, Denis (2023-04-19)
    Tsunamis are natural disasters that sometimes follow large-magnitude offshore earthquakes and cause significant damage to coastal bridges. In addition to the destructive power of the tsunami bore, shipping containers and ...
  • Multistage Friction Connections 

    Chanchi Golondrino, Jose Christian; MacRae, Gregory; Coral Potosi, Hugo Anderson (2023-04-19)
    Multistage friction connections (MFCs) are bolted connections for dissipating seismic energy while reducing peak displacements and encouraging recentring. MFCs comprise two symmetric friction connections co-linearly ...
  • Meet EDDIE – QuakeCoRE’s new earthquake test dummy 

    Vinnell, Lauren; Johnston, David; Hogan, Lucas; Stephens, Max; Horspool, Nick (2023-04-19)
    Until recently there has been limited understanding of the relationship between behaviour during earthquake shaking and risk of injury. Studying human behaviour during shaking is important, however, because with a better ...
  • Enhancing earthquake and tsunami preparedness and response in Kura Kaupapa Māori/Schools in Tairāwhiti and Waiāriki, Aotearoa New Zealand 

    Tapuke, Kelvin; Kaiser, Lucy; Johnston, David; McCombe, Georgia; Becker, Julia (2023-04-19)
    Aotearoa New Zealand is exposed to numerous potentially damaging impacts from various hazard events. The east coast of the North Island, one of the most active seismic regions in New Zealand, faces significant earthquake ...
  • High capacity glued-in rod connections in Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) structures 

    Shirmohammadli, Youness; Hashemi, Ashkan; Masoudnia, Reza; Quenneville, Pierre (2023-04-19)
    Glued-in rods are efficient and high-capacity connections for achieving high-strength connections in new timber structures and reinforcing existing timber buildings. With the emergence of cross-laminated timber (CLT) and ...
