RISTime-Dependent Resilience in the Presence of Interacting Multiple Hazards in a Changing Climate
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The safety and serviceability of in-service structures and infrastructure systems are often threatened by natural hazards. Asset owners/decision makers are thus concerned about the resilience of an object of interest ...
Using Climate Model Decadal Predictions and Statistical Extrapolations of Location-Specific Near-Term Temperature and Precipitation for Infrastructure Engineering
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Location-specific, near-term (≤10 years) temperature and precipitation conditions are informative and important in many infrastructure engineering activities. Two alternative approaches for obtaining near-term future climate ...
Interdependent Recovery Methodology for Residential Buildings and Household Housing in Community Resilience Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The growing field of multidisciplinary community resilience assessment requires analysts to model complex interactions across physical infrastructure and social systems to support planning and inform decisions. Community ...
A Generic Deep Learning–Based Computing Algorithm in Support of the Development of Instrumented Bikes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper introduces a generic deep learning–based method using a sliding window computing algorithm based on long short-term memory (LSTM) networks for the classification of potential anomalies (e.g., cracks, potholes, ...
3D Dense Reconstruction for Structural Defect Quantification
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recent advancements in vision-based visual inspection enable the identification, localization, and quantification of damage on structures. However, existing damage quantification methods are limited to measuring one- or ...
Quantifying Social Inequalities in Flood Risk
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The distribution and inequalities of flood risks across space and social groups are important considerations for infrastructure design and adaptation. However, neither civil infrastructure practitioners nor researchers ...
Homeowners’ Motivations to Invest in Energy-Efficient and Renewable Energy Technologies in Rural Iowa
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Across the United States, rural households are more vulnerable to higher energy burdens (percentage of household income spent on energy bills). Energy-efficient and renewable energy technologies provide the means for ...
Advancing Sustainability and Resilience of Airports through Deployment of New Technologies in the Aftermath of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Airports Council International and the global air transport industry set a net-zero carbon goal for airports by 2050, presenting an opportunity for innovation and creating a sustainable path to recovery amid the COVID-19 ...
Assessing the Institutional- and Project-Level Determinants of Corruption in Infrastructure Projects: Evidence from World Bank–Funded Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To successfully deliver infrastructure projects, it is essential to prevent corruption—i.e., the act of offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting anything of value, directly or indirectly, with the intention of improperly ...
Wildfire Risk Mitigation through Systems Analysis of the Planetary Emergency
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recognizing wildfires as a multiscale planetary emergency, this paper describes a systems analysis of technology countermeasures, with special attention to Sicily, California, and several other regions. The paper describes ...
