Structural and geotechnical observations after the April 25, 2015 M7.8 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake and its aftershocks
No full textThe April 25, 2015 Gorkha (Nepal) Earthquake (M7.8) and its related aftershocks had a devastating impact on Nepal. The earthquake sequence resulted in nearly 9,000 deaths, tens of thousands of injuries, and left hundreds of thousands of inhabitants homeless. With economic losses estimated at several billion US dollars, the financial impact to Nepal is severe and the rebuilding phase will likely span many years. To investigate the effects of this event, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) sponsored a team to visit Nepal, funded by a CEE Rapid Response Grant. From May 22-28, 2015, Youssef Hashash visited Nepal, in collaboration with a Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance (GEER) Association team, and collected data primarily related to geotechnical response. From June 7-13, 2015, Larry Fahnestock visited Nepal and collected data related to structural response of buildings, with
focus on reinforced concrete frame structures. This report briefly summarizes geotechnical aspects of the events, which are documented more extensively in a GEER Association report, and thoroughly summarizes structural observations.Open Restriction set for Item 98232 on 2017-02-09T22:47:04Z with date null by [email protected] by Ayla Stein ([email protected]) on 2017-02-09T22:55:27Z

Action-Reflection-Adaptation-Public Learning: Excerpts from the Life of a Pracademic. Larry Susskind in conversation with Shekhar Chandra
No full textLarry Susskind is Ford Professor of Urban and Environmental Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). His research interests focus on the theory and practice of multiparty negotiation and public dispute resolution, the practice of public engagement in local decision-making, global en-vironmental treaty-making, and the resolution of science-intensive policy disputes, particularly those related to climate change adaptation. He is an experienced mediator, having helped to settle more than 50 resource management and development disputes in many parts of the world, mostly through the Consensus Building Institute, which he founded in 1991. Larry is the author or co-author of more than twenty books including, most recently, Environmental Problem-Solving (Anthem), Managing Climate Risks in Coastal Communities: Strategies for Engage-ment, Readiness, and Adaptation (Anthem), the second edition of Environmental Diplomacy (Oxford Press), and Good for You, Great for Me (Public Affairs Press).He is one of the co-founders of the in-ter-university Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School, where he now directs the MIT-Harvard Public Negotiations Program, serves as Vice-Chair for Instruction, and co-directs the Negotiation Pedagogy Initiative. This booklet is based on the author’s frequent interactions with Larry over several years at MIT. During his doctoral studies, the author has had multiple opportunities to work with Larry that not only inspired the author’s research but also exposed him to some of Larry’s important scholarly contributions to the planning field. Conversations in the booklet are grouped under five broad public policy questions to which Larry has made important contributions.AESOP Young Academics Booklet Project Conversations in Planning, Booklet
