Abstract: Ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC) is an advanced cementitious material which has excellent mechanical and durability properties, making it appropriate for the rehabilitation of concrete structures. This paper investigates ...

Abstract: This paper will discuss the variations in wave loads on a vertical seawall structure due to the addition of parapets. A 1:8 model scale experiments on a wall with parapets will be carried out. The models will be tested for ...

Abstract: Regular bridge inspections are key to maintaining healthy infrastructure and to preventing unanticipated structural failures. In recent years, mobile inspection robots have been proposed as a tool to aid bridge inspections. ...

Abstract: This work presents a process for automated end-to-end inspection of area defects—specifically spalls and delaminations—in RC bridges. The process uses a mobile robotic platform to collect three-dimensional (3D) spatial ...

Abstract: Leaks cause significant water loss in underground water distribution networks, which makes it critical that utilities quickly detect, localize, and repair them. Acoustic leak detection and localization methods using ...

Abstract: Fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature reactors (FHRs) are an emerging category of next generation reactors. A thermal hydraulic modeling tool that can perform fluid flow and heat transfer analyses in the core region of the ...
