Real-time Hybrid Simulation for Earthquake-induced Motions and Cascading Earthquake & Tsunami Events

Join EERI’s Younger Members Committee for a FREE webinar on real-time hybrid simulation for earthquake induced motions and cascading earthquake and tsunami events. The first presentation will focus on real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS), a cost-effective cyber-physical simulation method that can be used to examine the behavior of systems too large or complex to test fully in a laboratory setting, alleviating the aforementioned constraints. Hydrodynamic-RTHS, or hydro-RTHS, couples physical waves and a partial structural specimen with a computational structural model in the NHERI-EF Large Wave Flume and Multi-Direction Wave Basin at Oregon State University (OSU). The second presentation will focus on recent developments of new types of high-performance control systems (HPCSs), including robust semi-active friction devices. The vibration mitigation performance of HPCSs is investigated through Real-time Hybrid Simulations (RTHS) on an earthquake-excited two-story reinforced concrete building.

Where do I find an earthquake engineer for residential in Tacoma Washington? Someone who can tell a contractor what he needs to do to my house???
