Thecourse presents the fundamental principles of solid mechanics.

The course addresses risk and decision analysis for geotechnical and structural engineering systems based on statistics and reliability modeling. Students will learn to make probabilistic predictions of the behavior of geotechnical and structural engineering systems by characterizing and quantifying the uncertainties associated with the material properties and external forces, and propagating them through the relevant prediction equations.

This course blends the fundamentals of solid mechanics and mathematics to enable students to glean into the behavior of civil engineering systems. The topics to be covered include the geometry of deformation; elastic constitutive theory; boundary value problems in elasticity; Ritz methods; energy principles, linear algebra, ordinary differential equations, Fourier analysis.

This course will build on concepts from undergraduate mechanics of solids and structural analysis courses, developing ideas in a more general setting and in a manner suitable for computer implementation. The goal is to develop the background needed to intimately understand principles behind advanced computer codes, used for example in analyzing structures in extreme events. With such an understanding, one can use these codes with confidence, improve upon them when necessary, and in some cases even develop new codes. In undergraduate courses, structures are typically analyzed making approximations such as small displacements and linear elastic material behavior. In many applications, such approximations are not valid. Therefore, a significant part of this course will be on nonlinear analysis of structures. There will be substantial emphasis on implementation.

The course reviews the undergraduate engineering mathematics, and covers a range of topics that are relevant to contemporary civil engineers in research. Topics include linear algebra, ordinary differential equations, Fourier analysis and partial differential equations. It will emphasize fundamental concepts and analytical solution techniques.

This is a design-oriented course in which students work on a project, in groups of three, from schematic design through a final design report.

Fundamental principles and design methods for geotechnical earthquake engineering and machine foundations are presented in this course. Topics covered in the course include basic concepts of seismology, earthquakes, strong ground motion, and seismic hazard analysis. The basic principles of wave propagation are used to develop procedures for site response analysis and to provide insight into such important problems as local site effects, liquefaction, seismic slope stability, and seismic design of retaining structures.

This course addresses the design, operation, control and management of transportation facilities. Topics covered in the course include geometric design of roadways, capacity analysis for freeway segments, signal timing and design, and intersection design and layout. Students are introduced to a number of traffic analysis and traffic simulation software, including SYNCHRO and SimTraffic. Students are required to undertake a comprehensive term project that involves detailed analysis and/or simulation of a transportation facility and write a survey-type paper on a topic of recent interest that is related to traffic operations and design.

The focus of this class is on the state-of-the-art methods for forecasting travel demand. The ability to forecast travel demand is fundamental to any transportation planning effort. The first part of the class will focus on the four-step travel demand forecasting process that consists of the trip generation, trip distribution, mode split, and traffic assignment steps. This approach, though aggregate and conventional, has been widely used for planning purposes in the US and other countries in the world. Recent refinements to the process will also be discussed, along with a brief introduction to activity-based analysis, an alternative paradigm of travel demand forecasting that is behavior oriented and tends to increase the sensitivity of transportation planning models to policy making.
