    • Dealing with uncertainty in prediction of lateral spread 

      Smith, Vincent; Palmer, Stuart; Elwood, Kenneth (2022-04-27)
      Prediction of lateral spread for seismic assessment and design includes considerable uncertainty. Two widely used prediction methods are Youd et al. (2002) and Zhang et al. (2004). Five case studies across the Wellington ...

    • Post-earthquake functional recovery: A critical review 

      Zhan, Shen; Chang-Richards, Alice; Elwood, Kenneth; Boston, Megan (2022-04-27)
      Functional recovery not only transforms the retrofit of damaged buildings from an earthquake event but also contributes to community resilience. This paper aims to provide a state-of-the-art literature review of functional ...

    • Risk-targeted framework for seismic design: Maintaining serviceability 

      Hulsey, Anne; Horspool, Nick; Elwood, Kenneth; Gerstenberger, Matthew (2022-04-27)
      Changes to how seismic loads are determined for building design are imminent, as necessitated by the ongoing National Seismic Hazard Model update. The authors recently proposed a framework to produce risk-targeted hazard ...

    • Seismic Performance of Precast Hollow-core Units Seated Within the Plastic Hinge Region 

      Mostafa, Mohamed; Büker, Frank; Hogan, Lucas; Elwood, Kenneth; Bull, Des; Parr, Michael (2022-04-27)
      This paper discusses the susceptibility of hollow-core floor units to sustain a higher degree of damage when they are seated within the plastic hinge regions of the supporting beam. This damageability of these so-called ...
