Climate and Related Uncertainties Influencing Research and Development Priorities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sources of risk and uncertainty are key drivers of research and development (R&D) priorities for infrastructure assets, projects, and policies. This paper describes risk factoring, which is a quantification of what combination ...
Efficient Approach for the Reliability-Based Design of Linear Damping Devices for Seismic Protection of Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an efficient reliability-based methodology for the seismic design of viscous/viscoelastic dissipative devices in independent and/or coupled buildings. The proposed methodology is consistent with modern ...
Lifecycle Multihazard Framework for Assessing Flood Scour and Earthquake Effects on Bridge Failure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
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, ...
Stochastic Modeling of Geometric Imperfections in Aboveground Storage Tanks for Probabilistic Buckling Capacity Estimation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study develops a methodology to model random geometric imperfections in welded cylindrical aboveground storage tanks (ASTs). Precise modeling of the imperfections in ASTs is important for quantitative assessment of ...
Blast Design-Basis Threat Uncertainty and Its Effects on Probabilistic Risk Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: At present, the deterministic approach to blast-resistant design appears to be the prevalent philosophy in practice, as suggested by the notion of design-basis threat (DBT) outlined by the ASCE/SEI 59-11. In this study, ...
Simplified Seismic Analysis of Disordered Masonry Towers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The structural assessment of existing masonry towers under exceptional loads, such as earthquake loads, requires reliable and expedite methods of analysis. These approaches should take into account both the specific nonlinear ...
Probabilistic Assessment of Debris Flow Peak Discharge by Monte Carlo Simulation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The topographic and hydrologic parameters involved in the estimation of the debris flow peak discharge in a classical approach are usually assumed to be deterministic. As a result, in such approaches, the only uncertainty ...
