Course Objectives
Understand geotechnical problems occured under earthquake loads.
Write an origanal paper following the research on a case study occured during an earthquake.
Course Description
Earthquakes, seismicity, site amplification and response spectra; Stress-strain and shear strength characteristics of soils under earthquake excitations; The behavior of foundation and designs in seismic areas; Evaluation of slope stability during earthquakes; Behavior of retaining walls and earth retaining structures during earthquakes; Behavior of tunnels and lifeline systems during earthquakes; Numerical methods in geotechnical earthquake engineering; Earthquake codes related to geotechnical design
Course Outcomes
i. Grasping the inter-disciplinary interaction related to one’s area; reaching original results by using the specialistic knowledge in analyzing, synthesizing and evaluating new and complex ideas (knowledge).
ii. Developing a new idea, method, design and/or application which brings about innovation in the area; or, applying a conventional idea, method, design and/or application to a different environment; researching, grasping, designing and applying an original subject (skill).
iii. Expanding the limits of knowledge in the area by publishing at least one scientific article in an international peer reviewed journal and/or creating or interpreting an original work (Competence to work independently and take responsibility).
iv. Developing area-related new ideas and methods by making use of high level intellectual processes such as creative and critical thinking, problem solving and decision making (Learning Competence)
