Abstract: High-rise reinforced concrete chimneys, used to expel waste gases, are commonly used structures in facilities such as chemical and power plants. Chimney structures located in marine areas are prone to corrosion. Regardless ...

Abstract: A lifecycle multihazard framework is proposed to assess the system failure of bridge structures subjected to the combined hazards of flood-induced scour and earthquakes. The framework consists of three major components, ...

Abstract: The lateral impact of barges is a vital load case for river-crossing bridges. In addition, flood-induced scour has been recognized as a leading cause of bridge failure. However, current bridge performance assessment often ...

Abstract: Vehicle collision is an important reason for failing urban or highway bridges. However, few works have focused on the probability of damage to a bridge under such extreme loads. In this work, an impact-fragility analysis ...
