  • Course Description
    The purpose of this course is to introduce the concepts, theories, and applications of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering. It is a multidisciplinary course including the related topics in seismology, geology, wave propagation, soil dynamics, structure dynamics, risk analysis and related engineering problems. Topics discussed in this course include plate tectonics, faults, wave propagation, earthquake ground motion, probabilistic seismic hazard analysis dynamic soil behavior and its evaluation, site effect, soil liquefaction, soil-structure interaction and other earthquake-induced ground failure.
  • Course Objective

  • Grading
    1. NTU has not set an upper limit on the percentage of A+ grades.
    2. NTU uses a letter grade system for assessment. The grade percentage ranges and the single-subject grade conversion table in the NATIONAL TAIWAN UNIVERSITY Regulations Governing Academic Grading are for reference only. Instructors may adjust the percentage ranges according to the grade definitions. For more information, see the Assessment for Learning Section。
