Academic Research Partners

The seismic risk assessment contributions from the academic research community have been countless. This list tries to acknowledge the major contributors to the best available science utilized in SP3, but please let us know if we are missing your contribution. These contributions include both published research results, as well as models and source data provided by researchers with the approval to utilize the data in the development of SP3.

• Stanford University (core development of FEMA P-58, feedback from graduate course teaching)
• UC Berkeley (core development of FEMA P-58, feedback from graduate course teaching, collaboration on residual drift models)
• CalPoly (collaboration on rigid-wall flexible diaphragm)
• SUNY Buffalo (core development of FEMA P-58, collaboration on SpeedCore system)
• Texas A&M University (collaboration on rigid-wall flexible diaphragm)
• UC Berkeley SimCenter (collaboration on residual drift models)
• UCLA (graduate student intern focus on machine learning and AI)
• UC San Diego (non-structural performance research, feedback from graduate course teaching)
• University of British Columbia (collaboration on Resilient Design Coalition, resilient design building code development, and numerous refinements to SP3 technologies in support of this)
• University of Colorado at Boulder (FEMA P-58 Functional Recovery Module, countless other contributions, feedback from graduate student use)
• University of Washington (many contributions to FEMA P-58 fragilities)
