Abstract: AbstractLeak identification in urban water distribution networks (WDNs) is a critical task with potential consequences. Acoustic-based convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely employed for leak identification, ...

Abstract: Precise evaluation of the condition of RC bridge decks, particularly for corrosion-induced delaminations, is decisive for ensuring bridge performance and safety. Although infrared thermography (IRT) and ground penetrating ...

Abstract: This paper presents a defect-based model for assessing risk of failure for sewer pipelines. The proposed model deploys a Sugeno fuzzy inference system to create a risk index from which inspection and replacement activities ...

Abstract: AbstractThe increasing reliance on natural gas as a transitional energy source has underscored the importance of ensuring the safety and reliability of gas pipelines. This study examines failure patterns in gas transmission ...

Abstract: Maintenance cost optimization and performance prediction of bridge structures have become important challenges in bridge management systems. The performance of bridge structures should be carefully monitored, especially ...

Abstract: Condition assessment models for sewer network components can be considered a tool for key personnel to make informed decisions regarding the required interventions on the basis of the current conditions of these components. ...

Abstract: AbstractWhile modular integrated construction (MiC) offers an efficient and sustainable approach to construction projects, the precise alignment of modules during onsite installation remains a critical challenge. Despite ...
