RISVehicle Weight Limits and Overload Permit Checking Considering the Cumulative Fatigue Damage of Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ever-increasing demand in freight transportation results in a fast-growing number of overload permit requests every year. Overweight trucks, if not properly managed, can induce excessive fatigue damage that could ...
Conceptual Design of a New Three-Tower Cable-Stayed Bridge System with Unequal-Size Fans
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Multitower cable-stayed bridges with three or more towers often have economic advantages over ultralong-span double-tower cable-stayed bridges or suspension bridges, in situations when deep foundations are not required. ...
Equivalent Shear Force Method for Detecting the Speed and Axles of Moving Vehicles on Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Traffic monitoring, particularly on the gross vehicle weight (GVW) and axle weights (AWs) of heavy trucks, provides valuable information for the design and performance evaluation of bridges. Bridge weigh-in-motion (BWIM) ...
Research on Integrated Energy System Planning Optimization Considering Carbon Trading and Electricity–Thermal Energy Storage Synergy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractThe integrated energy system (IES) plays a huge role in improving energy efficiency,
promoting the development of renewable energy, and reducing carbon emissions. This
paper proposes an IES planning optimization ...
Truck Weight Limit for Simply Supported Steel Girder Bridges Based on Bridge Fatigue Reliability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this study was to present a new approach for determining the truck weight limit of simply supported steel girder bridges. This approach is based on the fatigue reliability of bridge girders under the action ...
