Abstract: This paper proposes a novel Level I damage-detection technique for short- to medium-span road bridges using weigh-in-motion (WIM) technology. The technique is based on the input provided by two WIM systems: (1) a pavement-based ...

Abstract: Gravity currents from instantaneous sources down a slope were modeled with classic thermal theory, which has formed the basis for many subsequent studies. Considering entrainment of ambient fluid and conservation of total ...

Abstract: Earth dike failure due to overtopping flow produces a significant displacement of bed-sediment mass. While sediment dynamics typically prevails as a nonequilibrium condition, the bed deformation is resulted from the ...

Abstract: The Serre–Green–Naghdi (SGN) theory is used widely in maritime hydraulics for the computation of water waves from shallow to intermediate water depths. However, it has been largely ignored in problems of open-channel ...

Abstract: In bridge weigh-in-motion systems, the vehicle speed is a fundamental input parameter for the weighing algorithm. The speed is generally obtained by processing structural responses measured at different locations along the ...

Abstract: Culverts are ubiquitous hydraulic structures used in cross-drainage and agricultural water systems, especially at farm outlets in irrigation systems. Gate control adds hydraulic complexity to culvert water flow, yet it has ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an innovative indirect monitoring system for bridge foundation scour damage detection. The Rail Infrastructure Alignment Acquisition system, a mobile mapping system that can be attached to the front or ...
