Abstract: An innovative steel–concrete joint (SCJ) was applied to long-span railway hybrid box girder cable-stayed bridges to achieve favorable force transfer and deformation performance with a running train. The fatigue performance ...

Abstract: The large deformation issue in soft rock mass is a worldwide difficulty that has puzzled tunnel engineering for a century and a half. Previous studies have mainly focused on a large deformation mechanism, prediction, and ...

Abstract: The steel–concrete joint (SCJ) of a railway hybrid girder–cable-stayed bridge transmits tremendous internal forces, resulting in complex structure and stress. The existing complex SCJs lead to difficulties in on-site ...

Abstract: As an unsupported structure, a berthing monopile is often expected to work under harsh conditions. Approaching vessels may introduce considerable berthing energy, resulting in substantial tensile stress on the pile. This ...

Abstract: This study conducted preliminary finite-element analysis (FEA) of an orthotropic steel deck (OSD) with U-ribs and V-ribs for a long-span cable-stayed steel-box girder railway bridge using the hot-spot stress method to ...

Abstract: The fatigue performance of a new type of butt-welded tensile-plate cable-girder anchorage that requires higher load-bearing capacity and lower stress concentration compared with normal tensile-plate anchorages for a long-span ...

Abstract: This study conducted preliminary finite-element analysis (FEA) of an orthotropic steel deck (OSD) with U-ribs and V-ribs for a long-span cable-stayed steel-box girder railway bridge using the hot-spot stress method to ...
