Corrosion is one of the most severe threats to the stability of steel bridges and regular rust
removal techniques is needed for the maintenance of steel bridges. Currently the correlation …

To conduct safety checks of corroded steel structures and formulate appropriate
maintenance strategies, the residual strength of steel structural members must be assessed …

In this study, a faster region-based convolutional neural network is constructed and applied
to the combined vision and thermographic images for automated detection and classification …

This research is aimed to investigate the evolution characteristics of corroded surface
morphologies, mechanical properties degradation caused by corrosion and further estimate …

Before the recent reconstruction, significant corrosion damages were observed on the deck
system of the∼ 170-year-old Széchenyi Chain Bridge. Therefore, an advanced reliability …

The marine environment is considered to be a highly aggressive environment for metal
materials. Steels are the most common materials being used for shipbuilding. Corrosion is a …

In this work, we proposed a scanning laser thermographic approach for evaluating the
thickness of thin coatings. It is based on the space-resolved temperature profile along the …

This paper proposes a line laser scanning thermography system for automated visualization
of coating thickness distribution within a steel structure. In the proposed system, a line laser …

This study investigated the residual mechanical behavior of Q345 and Q420 structural steels
after corrosion. Firstly, the tensile specimens were corroded in an acid solution until the …

This paper presents an experimental investigation into the corrosion behaviors and
mechanical properties of weathering steel (WS) in a marine atmosphere. Two types of WS …
