Study on Data-Driven Identification Method of Hinge Joint Damage under Moving Vehicle Excitation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The hinge joint is an important and fragile component of assembled hollow-slab bridges. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly identify hinge joint damage for guaranteeing the safety of assembled hollow-slab bridges. ...
Service-Life Estimation of a Reinforced Concrete Bridge Structure Exposed to Chloride-Contaminated Environments and Variable Traffic Loads
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The long-term performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures is influenced by several environmental factors along with various loading conditions. Structures such as RC bridges exposed to the marine environment, ...
Randomness and Similarity of Concrete Permeability in a Natural Tidal Environment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work first analyzes the time-dependent property of average concrete permeability by the relative decline ratio and proposes an analysis method for the randomness of time-dependent variables. Then, based on exposure ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of a Correlation Model to Describe Spatial Variability of Concrete Properties
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The heterogeneous character of concrete results in spatial variation of its material properties. Random field models are often used to account for this effect. Due to the large scatter on the correlation lengths suggested ...
Adaptive Sampling-Based Bayesian Model Updating for Bridges Considering Substructure Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During long-term bridge monitoring, model updating is necessary because it provides the basis for accurate condition assessment and damage detection. In this study, an adaptive sampling-based Bayesian model updating method ...
Impact of Multivariate Cross-Correlation between Soil Parameters on Maximum Longitudinal Deformation of an Operating Tunnel Induced by Ground Surface Surcharge
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Existing tunnels are inevitably disturbed by adjacent engineering projects, with ground surface surcharge accounting for the largest proportion. Meanwhile, the influence of spatial variability of soil parameters on tunnel ...
Personalized Vulnerability Assessment of Customized Low-Rise Wood-Frame Residential Structures under Hurricane Wind Loads: A Flexible Scenario-Based Simulation Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Hurricanes are one of the costliest and deadliest weather and climate disasters that impact the United States, largely affecting the residential sector. Residential structures are essential for the health and safety of the ...
Fall Risk Assessment for Vertical Formwork Activities in Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Vertical formwork in construction accounts for many fatal falls and injuries, among all other activities. Experts believe that an effective risk assessment could enhance safety performance by preventing accidents and ...
Climate Change Impact on Seismic Vulnerability of Aging Highway Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The lateral load–carrying capacity of highway bridges is adversely affected by corrosion deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers during earthquakes. Recent studies reveal that increased global warming due ...
Probability of Failure of High-Rise Buildings Equipped with Magnetorheological Dampers by Considering Uncertainty in Stationary and Nonstationary Earthquakes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the reliability analysis of magnetorheological (MR) dampers in semiactive control of structural responses under uncertainty in seismic excitation is investigated. Uncertainties in the input earthquake exerted ...
