Abstract:
The performance of an urban electric utility distribution system was evaluated for the February 2001 Nisqually earthquake. The restoration rate of the lifeline following the event was determined; the distribution of outage durations was estimated; and correlations between lifeline damage and instrumental Modified Mercalli intensity, peak ground velocity, and peak ground acceleration values were ascertained using a GIS (geographical information systems) approach. Using a logit regression analysis, a fragility curve was developed for the lifeline in a manner similar to O'Rourke's formulation of

Abstract:
The 2001 M 6.8 Nisqually, Washington, earthquake was recorded by more than 70 strong motion sites in and around the Puget Sound region. We have characterized the shear-wave velocity (VS) structure down to depths of 100 to 300 ft at the 32 permanent strong motion sites, which recorded the highest ground motions (peak horizontal ground accelerations [PGA] of 0.04 to 0.31 g), using the Spectral-Analysis-of-Surface-Waves (SASW) technique. Most of the surveyed sites are underlain by glacial till (Qvt) with the remaining sites on Holocene alluvium (Qal), glacial recessional (Qvr) and advance outwash

Abstract:
Bridge damage reports from the 2001 Nisqually earthquake were correlated with estimates of ground-motion intensity at each bridge site (obtained from ShakeMaps) and with bridge properties listed in the Washington State Bridge Inventory. Of the ground-motion parameters considered, the percentage of bridges damaged correlated best with the spectral acceleration at a period of 0.3 s. Bridges constructed before the 1940s, movable bridges, and older trusses were particularly vulnerable. These bridge types were underestimated by the HAZUS procedure, which categorizes movable bridges and older trusse

The Nisqually earthquake (M 6.8) struck western Washington State at 10:55 aM local time on Wed nesday, February 28, 2001. This study provides a detailed description of injuries attributable to this earthquake, which were treated in local emergency departments (EDs). ED logs and medical records from four facilities in the earthquake-affected region were reviewed. Ninety-six earthquake-related injuries were treated during the week following the earthquake, comprising 8.6 percent of all injuries treated during that period. EDs closer to the epicenter treated more earthquakerelated injuries. The p

AbstractThree numerical methods are used to model the structural response of Bremerton drydock no. 6 to the 2001 Nisqually earthquake. The models considered include: (1) a numerical linear-elastic soil response model, (2) a numerical non-linear time-history response model, and (3) a non-linear finite element model. The results of the models are compared to the observed drydock response and each other in order to determine their effectiveness in modeling drydock structures. The research demonstrated that the non-linear finite element program PLAXIS is suitable for the seismic analysis of drydoc

Abstract:
This paper examines the rationale of a method of nonstationary data processing and analysis, referred to as the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT), for its application to a recording-based approach in quantifying influences of soil nonlinearity in site response. In particular, this paper first summarizes symptoms of soil nonlinearity shown in earthquake recordings, reviews the Fourier-based approach to characterizing nonlinearity, and offers justifications for the HHT in addressing nonlinearity issues. This study then uses the HHT method to analyze synthetic data and recordings from the 1964 Niigat

ABSTRACT Sedimentary basins in the Puget Sound region, Washington State, increase ground-motion intensity and duration of shaking during local earthquakes. We analyze Pacific Northwest Seismic Network and U.S. Geological Survey strong-motion recordings of five local earthquakes (M 3.9–6.8), including the 2001 Nisqually earthquake, to characterize sedimentary basin effects within the Seattle and Tacoma basins. We observe basin-edge generated surface waves at sites within the Seattle basin for most ray paths that cross the Seattle fault zone. We also note previously undocumented basin-edge surfa

Abstract:
While soil liquefaction is common in earthquakes, the case-history data required to train and test state-of-practice prediction models remains comparatively scarce, owing to the breadth and expense of data that comprise a single case history. The 2001 Nisqually, Washington, earthquake, for example, occurred in a metropolitan region and induced damaging liquefaction in the urban cores of Seattle and Olympia, yet case-history data have not previously been published. Accordingly, this article compiles 24 cone-penetration-test (CPT) case histories from free-field locations. The many methods used t

Abstract:
The Elliott Bay Seawall in Seattle, Washington, was constructed in the early 1900s over soft/loose non-engineered and liquefaction susceptible fill, estuary, and beach deposits. The fill includes wood from historic waterfront sawmills and debris from the 1889 Great Seattle Fire. After the 2001 Nisqually earthquake, an evaluation of the seawall condition and seismic vulnerability determined that it had undergone significant deterioration and was susceptible to collapse for a 100-year earthquake. This evaluation led to design and replacement/retrofit of 1,130 meters (3,700 feet) of seawall. The

Abstract:
Canada’s 2020 national seismic hazard model (CSHM 2020) provides hazard estimates for interface Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquakes in southwestern Canada using four ground motion models (GMMs) with equal weights. Two out of the four GMMs were derived using data primarily from subduction earthquakes in Japan so their use in CSHM 2020 includes a “Japan-to-Cascadia” factor to account for local site conditions. Despite this regional factor, the GMMs do not explicitly consider the amplification effects from the Georgia sedimentary basin below Metro Vancouver. This study benchmarks ground mo
