RISReliability Analysis of RC Beams Exposed to Fire
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A procedure for conducting reliability analysis of RC beams subjected to a fire load is presented. This involves identifying relevant load combinations, specifying critical load and resistance random variables, and ...
Faroe Bank Channel Overflow: Mesoscale Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Faroe Bank Channel is the deepest connection through the Greenland?Scotland Ridge, where dense water formed north of the ridge flows southward over the sill crest, contributing to the formation of North Atlantic Deep ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of a Correlation Model to Describe Spatial Variability of Concrete Properties
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The heterogeneous character of concrete results in spatial variation of its material properties. Random field models are often used to account for this effect. Due to the large scatter on the correlation lengths suggested ...
Baroclinic Instability of the Faroe Bank Channel Overflow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he generation mechanism of mesoscale eddies in the Faroe Bank Channel (FBC) overflow region and their spatiotemporal characteristics are examined using the high-resolution regional Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...
Performance of an AASHTO Beam Bridge Prestressed with CFRP Tendons
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Corrosion-induced deterioration of steel RC highway bridges is one of the major distress types that can render a structurally deficient bridge before reaching the design life. One feasible solution to the problem is to ...
Closure to “Performance of an AASHTO Beam Bridge Prestressed with CFRP Tendons” by Nabil Grace, Elin Jensen, Vasant Matsagar, and Prasadu Penjendra

Flexural Performance of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Prestressed Concrete Side-by-Side Box Beam Bridge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effect of varying transverse posttensioning levels and arrangements on the load response of a one-half scale 30° skewed seven box beam bridge model was investigated. The effective span of the bridge model was 9.45 m ...
Observational Evidence Linking Arctic Supercooled Liquid Cloud Biases in CESM to Snowfall Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractClouds are a key regulator of Earth?s surface energy balance. The presence or absence of clouds, along with their macroscale and microscale characteristics, is the primary factor modulating the amount of radiation ...
Modeling the Impact of Microbial Intrusion on Secondary Disinfection in a Drinking Water Distribution System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to quantify the potential level of protection that secondary disinfection may provide in response to an intrusion event. Although several uncertainties exist regarding intrusion events, this ...
Life-Cycle Cost Analysis of Alternative Reinforcement Materials for Bridge Superstructures Considering Cost and Maintenance Uncertainties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) was conducted on prestressed concrete bridge superstructures using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars and strands. Traditional reinforcement materials of uncoated steel with ...
