Abstract: Highway flyover bridges in New Jersey experienced extensive early-age cracking on the high performance concrete deck recently. There were transverse cracks observed predominantly in the positive moment regions and spider ...

Abstract: Transit agencies own and operate thousands of bridge structures subjected to repetitive train loading. The majority of these bridges were built at the turn of the century and many have exceeded their theoretical fatigue ...

Abstract: Cracking in concrete deck has been the major concern to bridge designers as well as owners. Excessive cracking not only would affect the performance and serviceability of the bridge but also reduce the service life of the ...

Abstract: The hypothesis of a conventional traveling wave model cannot cover the aerodynamic coupling effect of tandem blade cascades, while the aerodynamic interference between the front and rear blades of the cascade has a remarkable ...
