Morgan Broberg

OverviewAI-generated summary

Morgan Broberg's research focuses on the seismic performance and design of composite structures, specifically composite plate shear walls and concrete-filled systems. Her work involves developing and evaluating non-linear analysis models to understand the cyclic behavior of these structural components. Broberg has investigated seismic design coefficients and capacity design principles for both coupled and uncoupled composite plate shear wall-concrete-filled systems. Her publications detail the derivation and application of design parameters such as R, C_d, and Ω₀ for these systems.

In addition to her structural engineering research, Broberg has also engaged in studies evaluating educational initiatives. These include an examination of a university-level course designed to foster interest in civil engineering among high school students and an evaluation of a high school engineering short course that integrated the engineering design process, creativity, and innovation. She has also contributed to research on preparing graduate students and postdoctoral researchers for tenure-track careers through mentoring.
