Time-dependent reliability of (weighted) k-out-of-n systems with identical component deteriorationJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 2 - Trang 1-10 - 2021
Cao Wang
The performance of civil infrastructure systems is vital in supporting a community’s functionalities. Reliability assessment of these systems is a powerful approach to evaluate whether the system performance is desirably safe under the impacts of resistance degradation and non-stationary loads. A k-out-of-n system is a widely-used logic model for a system with n components, which survives (works) ...... hiện toàn bộ
Probabilistic analysis of long-term loss incorporating maximum entropy method and analytical higher-order momentsJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 3 - Trang 1-17 - 2022
Yu Zhang, Yaohan Li, You Dong
Quantifying economic losses of civil infrastructures subjected to various hazards under a life-cycle context is of vital importance for risk assessment and management. In previous studies, the expected long-term loss has been widely applied as a standard decision criterion during the life-cycle analysis. However, the expectation may not be informative enough to illustrate uncertainties associated ...... hiện toàn bộ
Review of regulation techniques of asphalt pavement high temperature for climate change adaptationJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 3 - Trang 1-18 - 2022
Zhenlong Gong, Letao Zhang, Jiaxi Wu, Zhao Xiu, Linbing Wang, Yinghao Miao
Asphalt pavement is vulnerable to the temperature rising and extremely high-temperature weather caused by climate change. The regulation techniques of asphalt pavement high temperature have become a growing concern to adapt to climate change. This paper reviewed the state of the art on regulating asphalt pavement high temperature. Firstly, the influencing factors and potential regulation paths of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Life-cycle cost analysis of bridges subjected to fatigue damageJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 2 - Trang 1-13 - 2021
Stefano Sacconi, Laura Ierimonti, Ilaria Venanzi, Filippo Ubertini
Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is a decision-making tool particularly useful for the design of bridges as it predicts lifetime expenses and supports the inspections management and the maintenance activities. LCCA allows to consider uncertainties on loads, resistances, degradation and on the numerical modelling and structural response analysis. It also permits to consider different limit states an...... hiện toàn bộ
Enclosing contour tracking of highway construction equipment based on orientation-aware bounding box using UAVJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience -
Yapeng Guo, Yang Xu, Zhonglong Li, Hui Li, Shunlong Li
AbstractConstruction equipment tracking of highway construction site can obtain the spatiotemporal location in real time and provide data basis for construction risk control. The complete 2D moving of construction equipment in surveillance videos could be spatially represented by the translation, rotation and size change of corresponding images. To describe the tem...... hiện toàn bộ
Corrosion of carbon steel rebar in binary blended concrete with accelerated chloride transportJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience -
Kazi Naimul Hoque, Francisco Presuel-Moreno, Manzurul Nazim
AbstractSamples with two different binary blended concrete mixes were prepared, one containing cement replacement of 50% slag (referred here as SL mix) and the other containing cement replacement of 20% fly ash (termed here as FA mix). The water to cementitious ratio used to produce concrete specimens was 0.41. On the top surface of each specimen, various reservoir...... hiện toàn bộ
A novel random finite element model for holistically modeling of the frost effects on soils and cold region pavementsJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 3 - Trang 1-14 - 2022
Shaoyang Dong, Yusheng Jiang, Xiong Yu
This paper describes the development of a random finite element model (RFEM) that allows holistic simulation of frozen soil behaviors, including the effects of phase transition and the consequent internal stress and volume changes. The performance of the model is firstly validated with laboratory experiments. The model is implemented to simulate the effects of frost action on pavement. The coupled...... hiện toàn bộ
Probabilistic analysis of climate change impact on chloride-induced deterioration of reinforced concrete considering Nordic climateJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 3 - Trang 1-16 - 2022
Amro Nasr, Dániel Honfi, Oskar Larsson Ivanov
The impact of climate change on the deterioration of reinforced concrete elements have been frequently highlighted as worthy of investigation. This article addresses this important issue by presenting a time-variant reliability analysis to assess the effect of climate change on four limit states; the probabilities of corrosion initiation, crack initiation, severe cracking, and failure of a simply ...... hiện toàn bộ
Numerical analysis on seismic behavior of the assembled modular steel plate shear wall with inclined slotsJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience - Tập 4 Số 1
Shengchao Yang, Shan Jin
AbstractThis paper proposes a novel multi-grids steel plate shear wall with inclined slots (called MSPSW). This MSPSW composed of the steel plates with inclined slots, precast concrete panels, the transverse and longitudinal (T&L) connecting stiffeners, and external frame components. Smaller single plates can be used in the design and installation process since...... hiện toàn bộ
