- Description :
- THE DELIVERABLESThe Multi-Hazard Research Facility at the Water Resources Laboratory of the University of Ottawa aims to provide experimental research infrastructure for simulating the effects of multiple natural hazards, either individually or in combination, on civil engineering infrastructure. An important aspect of the facility is the ability to simulate the effects of seismic-induced ground excitations in combination with either large waves due to wind-generated coastal storms or seismic generated tsunami solitary waves or river currents by means of a Multi-Hazard Simulator (MHS). This will be implemented through the individual or combined use of a seismic table built in the University of Ottawa's 30 flume with either wave or current generators. The 31 m long flume will also be equipped with a sediment recirculation system to simulate the steady supply of sediment by river flow, although this feature will not be used in combination with the seismic table. Figure 1 illustrates a schematic view of the MHS. The seismic table is envisioned to be positioned in between the existing flap gate dam-break / tsunami wave generator and the new wave generator, i.e., about 5.1 m from either wave generator at approximately 21.5 m from the west lab wall. The MHS Flume is built with a concrete wall on the south side of the laboratory and a steel frame with glass panels on the north side. The flume has a total length of about 31 m from the east end to the west wall which delineates the or...
