SUMMARY:Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering  Short Course
DESCRIPTION:The course provides participants with a basic knowledge and understanding of the fundamental concepts in geotechnical earthquake engineering\, including the key issues related to dynamic soil properties\, local site effects and seismic site response analysis\, soil liquefaction during earthquakes and the related assessments\, seismic slope stability\, basics of seismic soil-structure interaction\, and seismic design of retaining structures. \nThe background information needed to understand the fundamentals and relevant concepts will be introduced. Supplementary resources\, including reports and papers\, will also be provided in various parts of the course. Relevant practical exercises will be given at the end of selected modules. Consequently\, the course is relevant to all geotechnical\, structural\, geological\, and mining engineers and consultants interested in geotechnical earthquake engineering.

SUMMARY:Geospatial Technology: Saving the World's Past\, Present\, and Future from Natural Hazards
DESCRIPTION:EERI-BC is pleased to announce that Michael Olsen (M.EERI 2004) is the recipient of the 2024 EERI Distinguished Lecture Award in recognition of his pioneering work applying geomatics to identify spatial geologic seismic hazards as well as risks to distributed systems. \nThe task of maintaining resilient infrastructure against the onslaught of natural hazards often feels elusive and unattainable. Recent advances in technology offer promising solutions and opportunities towards this goal; however\, the effective adoption and utilization of those technologies operates at a much slower pace given the societal realities of budget limitations\, workforce shortages\, polarization of priorities\, disillusionment from past failures\, and resistance to change. In day to day operations\, efforts by engineers\, planners\, and decision makers often are stymied due to a lack of accessible\, trustworthy\, and current information related to infrastructure conditions. These problems are exacerbated in emergency situations where infrastructure systems and people are pushed to extreme limits.
