Understanding and Improving the Seismic Resilience of Hospital Buildings
(2023-04-19)The establishment of Te Whatu Ora – Health New Zealand has enabled more direct national oversight of public hospital buildings across New Zealand. This has also led to the need for a more comprehensive understanding of ... -

Upper and lower bound force capacity estimates of lead extrusion damper design force using classical extrusion models
(2021-04-14)To reduce seismic vulnerability and the economic impact of seismic structural damage, it is important to protect structures using supplemental energy dissipation devices. High force to volume (HF2V) devices are supplemental ... -
Urban Geophysics and Seismic Hazard Assessment in the Wellington CBD
(2024-04-09)Many of our cities are built on sedimentary basins. Both the depth and shape of the basin will influence, and generally enhance the level of shaking. Our focus is the Wellington CBD, where we use seismic reflection and ... -

Using 3D geological models to create maps of estimated Vs30 and site period
(2023-04-19)The 30-m time-averaged shear-wave velocity (Vs30) and the fundamental site period (T0) are useful parameters for understanding site conditions, informing geotechnical studies as well as infrastructure planning. Unfortunately, ... -
Using a self-centring friction damper as anchorage system for industrial tanks and vessels
(2021-04-14)The conventional tank’s connections make the tanks to be either fully restrained or free for rocking motion, which generally creates a high level of force due to lack of ductility or large displacement demand due to uplift ...
