Abstract: One area of railway infrastructure management that can benefit greatly from digitalization is the determination of optimal intervention programs, i.e., when, where, and which type of interventions are to be executed. ...

Abstract: Drinking water and natural gas are essential goods provided by municipal distribution networks. In order for there to be a reliable provision of such commodities, infrastructure managers must regularly dispatch vehicles ...

Abstract: Ensuring that railways provide excellent service requires the execution of maintenance interventions. As railway use intensifies, this becomes increasingly difficult due to the conflict between track possession used for ...

Abstract: AbstractThe Swiss transportation infrastructure planning process, like all infrastructure planning processes, requires that the organizations involved determine how societal needs will change over time, how the current ...

Abstract: Water distribution is an essential service provided in cities. To ensure that the public has access to high quality drinking water in sufficient quantity at all times, intervention programs must be determined to replace ...

Abstract: A new quasi-one-dimensional procedure (one-dimensional with area change) is presented for the transient solution of real-fluid flows in lines and volumes including heat transfer effects. The solver ...

Abstract: This paper describes a methodology for evaluating alternative corrosion management strategies for a steel roadway bridge based on a total cost-benefit analysis. In this analysis, the impacts of girder type and preservation ...

Abstract: A road network consists of multiple objects that deteriorate over time with different speeds of deterioration. In order to provide an adequate level of service over time, these objects will eventually require interventions. ...

Abstract: Because failures on railway lines have nonzero probabilities of occurrence and can result in significant costs if they occur, railway infrastructure managers are interested in determining intervention programs that best ...
