A structural deterioration reliability model is developed to calculate probabilities of structural
failure (flexure) for a typical reinforced concrete continuous slab bridge. Corrosion may be …

A structural reliability analysis model is developed to include interaction between transverse
cracking, diffusion of chlorides, and corrosion initiation; influence of design specifications on …

Information about present and anticipated bridge reliabilities, in conjunction with decision
models, provides a rational and powerful decision-making tool for the structural assessment …

Bridges deteriorate with time due to aggressive environments and are subject to ever-
increasing traffic loads. This results in reduction of their reliability, which may eventually fall …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) can be defined as the continuous monitoring of a
bridge's state properties, such as static and dynamic response, in order to diagnose the …

This article addresses the problem of reliability assessment of reinforced concrete (RC)
bridges during their service life. First, a probabilistic model for assessment of time …

Atualmente observa-se que uma grande parte das estruturas de concreto armado estão
apresentando problemas relacionados à corrosão das armaduras, principalmente aquela …

Fragility increment functions are developed to estimate the seismic fragility of reinforced
concrete (RC) bridges subject to deterioration due to the onset and progression of corrosion …

Bridges built from any material and having any special shape will eventually show signs of
wearing off; therefore, there are several factors in the kind and rate of such wearing off and …
