- This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation, under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $209,999 to the University of Utah to conduct collaborative research on the effect of vertical accelerations on the seismic performance of steel building components through experimental and numerical studies. The University of Utah will instrument a near full-scale ten-story steel building to be tested on a shake table in Japan to measure its response under three-dimensional...
- This $127,940 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to develop an innovative seismic resilient structural system at Stanford University from October 1, 2022 to August 31, 2023. The system aims to protect buildings and their occupants from earthquakes through a new steel frame-spine design with force-limiting connections. Researchers will collaborate with counterparts in Japan to test the system using a full-scale earthquake facility. They also plan to offer an online course...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $399,915 in funding to the University of California, Davis from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028. The goal of this research is to develop a novel scientific formulation that integrates fracture mechanics with an enriched frame element formulation, resulting in a method that can accurately simulate the initiation and propagation of fracture and fatigue in steel structures. This research...
- This $199,638 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research by the San Diego State University (SDSU) Research Foundation to develop an improved seismic-resistant timber-concrete connection using replaceable ductile anchor rods. The goal is to enhance the seismic resilience of mass timber structures by enabling rapid post-earthquake repair through a reliable ductile mechanism that dissipates energy in the anchor connecting the...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (CFDA 47.041) awarded a $400,000 Project Grant to the University of Washington to advance earthquake engineering research on cast-in-place concrete diaphragms with openings in reinforced concrete buildings. The 3-year project, beginning January 1, 2024, will develop a fundamental understanding of how openings for stairs, elevators, and mechanical systems affect the seismic performance of concrete floor diaphragms. The research...
- The University of California, Davis will receive $200,000 under a two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation.
