Bridge weigh in motion (B-WIM) uses accurate sensing systems to transform an existing
bridge into a mechanism to determine actual traffic loading. This information on traffic …

In Germany, bridges have an average age of 40 years. A bridge consumes between 0.4%
and 2% of its construction cost per year over its entire life cycle. This means that up to 80 …

The dynamics of vehicle-bridge interaction (VBI) involve the adoption of two-dimensional
(2D) and three-dimensional (3D) vehicle models in simulations. It is worth noting that the 2D …

The steadily growing traffic load has resulted in lots of bridge collapse events over the past
decades, especially for short-to-medium span bridges. This study investigated probabilistic …

Data reconstruction is an important research topic for missing data recovery and data
supplement. Spatial interpolation is often used for data reconstruction. The interpolation for …

Extreme value prediction has been widely applied in many safety-critical scenarios. Due to
the influence of mixed types of events, the random variables oftentimes do not comply with …

Traffic load is a crucial but complicated factor in determining the in-service performance and
deterioration behavior of bridges. A better understanding of traffic loads in different traffic …

Data loss is a critical problem in structural health monitoring (SHM). Probability distributions
play a highly important role in many applications. Improving the quality of distribution …

Around the world, an increasing amount of bridge infrastructure is ageing. The resources
involved in the reassessment of existing assets often exceed available resources and many …

In various efforts to assure safety and serviceability of a bridge structure throughout its
lifetime, it is essential to accurately estimate the traffic load effects. Although traffic loads …
