Strut-and-Tie Model-Based Prestress Design for the Cable–Pylon Anchorage Zone of Cable-Stayed Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Due to its complex geometry and mechanical behavior, the prestress design of the cable–pylon anchorage zone is difficult to achieve but critical. In this paper, the use of the strut-and-tie model (STM) is evaluated to ...
Simultaneous Input and Parameter Estimation of Hysteretic Structural Systems Using Quasi-Monte Carlo-Simulation-Based Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work proposes an efficient identification scheme for simultaneous input and parameter estimation of the hysteretic systems. For this purpose, a quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC)-simulation-based approach is adopted, where the ...
Schemes for Improving Flutter Performance of Suspension Bridges during Deck Erection under Normal and Skew Winds
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To ensure the flutter stability of long-span suspension bridges during deck erection under normal and skew winds, by taking the Runyang suspension bridge as example, the evolution of flutter stability of the bridge under ...
Long-Term Damping Characteristics of Twin Cable-Stayed Bridge under Environmental and Operational Variations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The recent development of automated operational modal analysis (OMA) has enabled the modal tracking of environmental and operational conditions. Variations in these conditions have prevented investigations into the long-term ...
Effects of Corrosion and Scouring on Barge Impact Fragility of Bridge Structures Considering Nonlinear Soil–Pile Interaction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of corrosion and scouring on the barge impact fragility of bridge structures. A typical four-span continuous reinforced concrete (RC) bridge is selected as the baseline structure, and a ...
Inerter Nonlinearity and Its Influence on Control Efficiency of TMDI for Suppressing Vortex-Induced Vibration of Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Inerter-based dynamic vibration absorbers (IDVAs) have been theoretically studied in the vibration control of civil structures. However, experimental studies, especially studies on the nonlinearity of this mechanical device ...
Barge Bow Force–Deformation Relationships for Bridge Impact-Resistant Design: Development and Assessment Using Shock Spectrum Approximation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Force–deformation relationships of waterway vessels play an important role in the impact-resistant design of bridge structures. Characterizations of barge bow force–deformation (i.e., crushing) behaviors found in design ...
Axial Compressive Behavior of Concrete-Encased CFST Stub Columns with High-Level Two-Stage Initial Stresses
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) is an innovative composite member that consists of the inner CFST components and an outer reinforcement concrete encasement. One increasing application scenario of ...
Experimental–Numerical Determination of the Effective Bulk Thermal Conductivity of Suspension Bridge Main Cables
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Accurate thermal properties are crucial for modeling the response of infrastructure to fire scenarios. While other researchers have contributed significant effort toward characterizing the thermal behavior of parallel-wire ...
Coupled CFD–FEM Simulation Methodology for Fire-Exposed Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Evaluating the fire performance of bridges is necessary for damage mitigation as more fire-related accidents occurred on bridge structures. Current solutions adopting temperature curves can result in significant inaccuracy ...
