Condition State–Based Civil Infrastructure Deterioration Model on a Structure System Level
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The successful prediction of civil infrastructure’s deterioration process is crucial for making optimal maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement (MR&R) decisions under financial constraints. The majority of current ...
Quantification of Compound Flooding over Roadway Network during Extreme Events for Planning Emergency Operations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Hurricanes cause substantial inundation of transportation networks, rendering them inaccessible to emergency response vehicles. Because storm tides and heavy rainfall often co-occur during hurricanes, a reliable assessment ...
Quantifying the Impact of Climate Change on Peak Stream Discharge for Watersheds of Varying Sizes in the Coastal Plain of Virginia
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Civil infrastructure systems have traditionally been designed assuming stationarity in precipitation. However, climate change is making this assumption invalid, affecting both existing infrastructure designed assuming ...
Impact of Geospatial Data Enhancements for Regional-Scale 2D Hydrodynamic Flood Modeling: Case Study for the Coastal Plain of Virginia
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Hydrology in low-relief coastal plains is especially challenging to simulate in flood modeling applications. Two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic models are often necessary, but creating such models for regional-scale systems ...
