Adda Athanasopoulos-Zekkos, Civil and Environmental Engineering Vice Chair for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging and Associate Professor, recently received a grant from California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program (CSMIP) to work on "Assessment of Critical Lifeline Structures: Seismic Response of California Earth Dams Using Empirical, Numerical, and Experimental Approaches."
The California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program (CSMIP) in the California Geological Survey (CGS) established a data interpretation project in 1989. Each year CSMIP funds several such projects for the analysis and utilization of strong-motion data. The objectives of the data interpretation project are to further the understanding of strong ground shaking and the response of structures, to increase the utilization of strong-motion data in post-earthquake response, and to improve seismic design code provisions and design practices.
