Abstract: A computer simulation method of solving vehicle-bridge system vibration response with consideration of wind load was presented based on mode integration theory. Vehicle model and fluctuating wind load model was established, ...

Abstract: Rational and precise evaluation for ultimate flexural capacity is essential for accurate prediction of the safety margin and overload capacity of existing bridges. One of the spans of a 28- year-old distressed simply ...

Abstract: This paper presents a preliminary design approach for tuned particle dampers for continuous viaducts. A series of shaking table tests of a

Abstract: To examine the hysteretic behavior of lead extrusion dampers (LEDs) and their application for the seismic control of viaducts, an experimental research on LEDs according to different heights and lengths of the convex of ...

Abstract: To study the effects of ground motion spatial variations on curved bridges, this paper presents a shake-table test for a 1/10-scale typical curved bridge under spatial ground motions, including wave passage effect, local ...

Abstract: AbstractEngineered cementitious composite (ECC) is a material with high-ductility and damage-resistance capacity, which can mitigate cracking, prevent cover spalling caused by concrete brittleness, and inhibit reinforcement ...

Abstract: The co-gasification characteristics of petroleum coke (PC), hydrochar (PS), and their blends with different ratios were studied by using thermogravimetric analysis. The Coats–Redfern model was employed to calculate the ...
