An Adaptive Dynamic Downscaling Strategy to Obtain Real-time Multi-resolution Wind-field during Evolving Tropical Cyclones to Support Real-Time Risk Forecast of Powerlines
(2023)Tropical cyclone (TC) induced high winds often cause significant damages to powerline systems and lead to widespread power failure and socio-economic losses. Meteorological numerical weather prediction during an evolving ... -
Risk management strategies and probabilistic failure pressure model development for pipelines with crack-like defect
(2023)Optimal inspection and maintenance planning for deteriorating pipelines is necessary for cost-effective risk management decisions. The objective of this study is to develop a framework for determining the optimal inspection ... -
Random field modeling of the mechanical properties of graphene nanoplatelets
(2023)In this work, a random field approach is employed to model the mechanical properties of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) consisting of multiple graphene sheets connected with van der Waals forces. GNPs share the excellent ... -
Empirical distributions of traffic loads from one year of weigh-in-motion data
(2023)In the state-of-the-art of structural engineering the actions for design or assessment of bridges should derive from a probabilistic (i.e., frequentist) characterization of the loads. Data from weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems ... -
Random vibration and global dynamic analyses of nonlinear MDOF systems under combined additive and multiplicative excitation
(2023)The random vibration and global dynamic analyses of structures subjected to combined additive and multiplicative excitation are challenging issues. In this paper, the direct probability integral method (DPIM), as a novel ... -
Quantifying Uncertainties in Cargo Deck Deflections from Distributed Fiber Optic Strain Data
(2023)A variety of sensing modalities and sensor technologies are used to monitor the health, assess the condition, and quantify the life span of civil infrastructure. Among the more recent technologies utilized for health ... -
Development of a Bayesian framework for the post-fire assessment of concrete structures
(2023)Fire can have a significant impact on concrete structures, including the reduction of their structural capacity. A post-fire assessment must be conducted to determine the condition of the structure, which is based on a ... -
Short-term monitoring of an in-service bridge to determine boundary conditions
(2023)In Structure Health Monitoring (SHM), it is commonplace to model a structure to predict how it will behave. However, creating realistic models can be a changing endeavour due to the information required about the structure. ... -
Probabilistic failure path approach on structural system-reliability-based design optimization of fatigue-induced failure
(2023)Reliability analysis with unknown system event definition such as sequence of member failures requires a failure-path approach to determine the component events that will induce overall system failure. In particular, ... -
Investigating the Use of Citizen-Science Data as a Proxy for Flood Risk Assessment in New York City
(2023)New York City has an extensive waterfront and numerous low-lying neighborhoods that make it highly exposed to the impacts of extreme weather events. With global warming increasing the frequency and intensity of these events, ... -
Constrained non-intrusive polynomial chaos expansion for physics-informed machine learning regression
(2023)This work presents a constrained polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) as a physics-informed machine learning (ML) technique to supplement data with physical constraints in the regression framework. PCE is a popular metamodeling ... -
A data-driven framework to support performance-based early design of buildings: data and methodology
(2023)Achieving resilient and sustainable infrastructure urges developing computational tools to explicitly consider performance objectives in all design and construction stages. The majority of critical decisions are made at ... -
Adaptable robust traffic signal control for urban road networked systems with uncertain capacity
(2023)In order to effectively mitigate congestion and propagate uncertainty in road networked systems, a robust signal control with adaption to traffic dynamics is presented. A Stochastic Traffic Model (STM) is introduced to ... -
Evaluating System Reliability of Floating Offshore Substations
(2023)Offshore wind is planned to become the first source of energy by 2050 in view to meet the required levels of CO2 emissions in the world. That requires to install turbines in deeper seas. It is shown that only Floating Wind ... -
Life-Cycle Residual Performance Assessment of Concrete Bridges Considering Spatial Variability of Corrosion
(2023)A recent SEI/ASCE survey highlights that advanced life-cycle models for deteriorating structures are well established for some of the most detrimental damage processes (e.g. corrosion). However, reliability assessment ... -
A Bayesian Estimation Approach to the Post-Earthquake Recovery Trajectories of Electric Power Systems in Japan
(2023)Post-disaster recovery modelling of engineering systems has become an important facet of disaster risk management. The post-disaster recovery trajectory of a civil infrastructure system can be quantified using (a) their ... -
Physics model-based probabilistic process optimization and control
(2023)A model-based approach for process design and control is more efficient and economical than the physical experiment-based trial-and-error approach in advanced manufacturing processes such as additive manufacturing (AM). ... -
A Method for Probabilistic Analysis in Structural Dynamics Based on Separation of Aleatory and Epistemic Uncertainties
(2023)There is still much philosophical debate about whether a frequentist or subjective view of probability should be adopted. Some uncertainties (typically aleatory uncertainties) are naturally modelled using a frequentist ... -
Probabilistic evaluation of road bridges under heavy load platforms
(2023)Road bridges are one of the most important infrastructure assets for global transportation. With the growing freight demands, traffic loads on bridges are also increasing. Specifically, the increase of heavy load platforms ... -
Coastal protection strategies to minimize transportation network disruption from sea level rise
(2023)As sea levels rise, there has been an increase in research focused on the protection of shoreline infrastructure and transportation systems that may increasingly suffer from permanent capacity and accessibility reduction. ...
