Assessment of effect on climate change on structural behaviour of corroded sheet-piles in harbors
Di Rocco, Francesco; Schoefs, Franck; ICASP14 (2023)Corrosion and water level affect the reliability of metal structures in the marine environment reducing their service capacity. This phenomenon can be accentuated by the presence of microorganisms which act directly or ... -
Evaluating System Reliability of Floating Offshore Substations
ICASP14; Oumouni, Mestapha; Schoefs, Franck; Morteza, Ahmadivala; Dupriez-Robin, Florian; Luxcey, Neil (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 ... -
Evaluating the value of information of inspection strategies for a FOSS
Duperiez Robin, Florian; Schoefs, Franck; ICASP14; Morteza, Ahmadivala (2023)Many future commercially exploitable sites of marine renewable energies (MRE) are located in transitional to large water depths if compared to already deployed bottom-fixed offshore wind farms. Some constraints such as ... -
Improving the spatial monitoring of rain gauges for flood assessment
Schoefs, Franck; Cao, Chengjun; ICASP14 (2023)Flood assessment for early warning systems rely on the confidence on data. Rainfalls are usually estimated by radar with a low accuracy but a fine spatial mesh and rain gauges with a high accuracy but a low density. Adding ... -
Influence of the spatial variability of the corrosion parameters on SLS failure probability of marine reinforced concrete structures
El-Soueidy, Charbel-Pierre; Schoefs, Franck; ICASP14; Clerc, Romain (2023)Existing reinforced concrete marine structures are subject to the penetration of chemical agents, mainly chlorides, which leads to their degradation through pitting corrosion of rebars. Because of our limited knowledge ... -
Multifidelity support vector machines classifiers exploiting discretization error estimators for structural reliability
Schoefs, Franck; Rey, Valentine; ICASP14; Mell, Ludovic (2023)In reliability analysis, the estimation of probability of failure is computionally challenging. The deterministic numerical simulation of large civil engineering structures using discretization techniques such as the Finite ... -
Stochastic approximation of fatigue damage for in-service monitoring of structures
ICASP14; Moro, Tanguy; Schoefs, Franck; Rey, Valentine; Freyssinet, Clément (2023)Fatigue is a phenomenon of local degradation resulting from the repetition of low amplitude loads such as wind or waves. It plays a predominant role in the lifetime of aircraft, ships, and o?shore platforms. However, due ... -
Uncertainty Quantification of Semi Destructive Testing for chloride content assessment for a concrete bridge in maritime environment
ICASP14; Bonnet, Stéphanie; O'Connor, Alan; Keita, Awa; Schoefs, Franck (2023)Harbors play a major socio-economic role in almost all littoral countries with more than 80% of trade exchange and play also usually a key role for military defense. Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures in harbors are ...
