Course Details
• Fundamentals of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering: An introduction to the principles and concepts of geotechnical earthquake engineering, including seismic hazard analysis and soil dynamics.
• Seismic Wave Propagation: A study of the propagation of seismic waves through soil media, including body waves, surface waves, and wave scattering.
• Site Response Analysis: An examination of site response analysis methods, including 1D and 2D site response analyses, and the use of shear wave velocity profiles.
• Soil Liquefaction: An exploration of soil liquefaction, including the factors that contribute to liquefaction, the mechanisms of liquefaction-induced ground deformation, and methods for evaluating liquefaction potential.
• Seismic Design of Shallow Foundations: A review of the seismic design of shallow foundations, including the effects of soil-structure interaction and the use of seismic design parameters.
• Seismic Design of Deep Foundations: An examination of the seismic design of deep foundations, including the effects of soil-structure interaction, dynamic soil-pile interaction, and the use of seismic design parameters.
• Seismic Design of Slopes and Embankments: A review of the seismic design of slopes and embankments, including the effects of earthquake-induced slope instability, deformation, and the use of seismic design parameters.
• Retrofit and Mitigation of Geotechnical Structures: An exploration of the retrofit and mitigation of geotechnical structures, including the evaluation of seismic performance and the use of retrofit techniques to improve seismic performance.
• Case Studies in Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering: A study of real-world case studies in geotechnical earthquake engineering, including the analysis of seismic failures, the evaluation of seismic performance, and the implementation of seismic design and retrofit strategies.
