Prof. Nweke was invited to present his research on “Seismic Site Response in Sedimentary Basins” to the Geotechnical Engineering Group of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at the University of Washington.
New Paper Alert!!!: Validating Predicted Site Response in Sedimentary Basins from 3D Ground Motion Simulations
Results and details of our work on validating earthquake simulations for use in engineering analysis and design has been published in Journal of Earthquake Spectra. See the publication page of this website to get more information and access.
Nweke Research Group: The N.E.S.T – Laboratory Up and Running
The Nweke Research Group: N.E.S.T Lab went operational today with the installation of out Resonant Column/Torsional Shear Device from GCTS. Our Device can also be transformed into a triaxial device to run test on soil samples under configurations of consolidated or unconsolidated, drained and undrained. The Confining pressures can go up to 1000 KPa and … Read More
