Collapse reliability of high-rise reinforced concrete systems subject to fully non-straight/-stationary hurricane representations
(2023)Performance-based wind engineering (PBWE) is becoming rapidly recognized as a necessary shift from common prescriptive wind design if the performance of wind-excited structures subject to a full range of wind intensities, ... -
Combating Infrastructure Complexity: Developing a Comprehensive Set of Wellbeing and Resilience Indicators for the Transport Infrastructure System
(2023)As modern societies become increasingly dependent on infrastructure systems, ensuring their functionality is paramount. Current simulation-based approaches for evaluating infrastructure wellbeing and resilience are known ... -
COMBINED STRATEGIES TO ACHIEVE ROBUST STRUCTURES
(2023)While the practical importance of designing and building robust structures is well recognized, the relevant code rules currently in place are often vague or confusing. Cross-referencing, in turn, may lead to loops around ... -
Combining Seismic Risk Analysis and Network Modeling to Assess Hospital Service Accessibility in the Bay Area, California
(2023)Earthquakes can damage hospitalsメ infrastructure and disrupt critical healthcare functions. For example, the Northridge Earthquake in California damaged 11 acute hospitals, and eight had to be evacuated. These disruptions ... -
Comparative Structural Reliability Analysis of Monopile-supported Offshore Wind Turbines ヨ considering the Effect of Flexible Foundation and Simulation Time on Long-term Extreme Response Extrapolation
(2023)This paper deals with the development of semi-probabilistic design formats for ultimate strength design of monopile-supported Offshore Wind Turbines. The effect of the flexible foundation and simulation time on long-term ... -
Comparing Conventional and Buffered Failure Probability from the Perspective of Risk-based Decision-Making
(2023)Failure probability has been widely used as a reliability metric to provide a building block of reliability-based decision-making. Such use of failure probability has implications for both risk management and computation. ... -
Comparison between AS5100 fatigue load model and fatigue from representative traffic
(2023)Bridges provide an irreplaceable role in road transportation, and so it is vital to properly manage them. The traffic loading caused by trucks is decisive in bridge design and assessment, because it not only controls the ... -
Comparison of Cascading Effects in Critical Infrastructure Networks based on Simulation
(2023)Natural hazards such as floodings affect critical infrastructures (CIs) with increasing frequency and intensity. The effects are hard to predict due to the change of the hazards over time (e.g., due to climate change), but ... -
Comparison of methods for model uncertainty quantification
(2023)Model uncertainties are included in reliability assessments to account for the uncertainty introduced by the use of computational models to obtain e.g. resistances and load effects. Often, the model uncertainty is modeled ... -
Comparison of strategies for the optimal sampling of random functions
(2023)In engineering problems and applications are usually characterized by uncertainty. The accurate quantification of possible effects of those uncertainties is of vital importance. The most common approach to do so is ... -
Complete decoupled adaptive robust design optimization
(2023)Robust design optimization (RDO) can provide an optimum design solution that is relatively insensitive to input uncertainties, thus possesses significant value in the design of engineering structures. Generally, the RDO ... -
Condition Assessment of In-situ Concrete in Aging Residential Buildings in Mumbai ヨ A Probabilistic Approach
(2023)This paper presents condition assessment of in-situ concrete in existing residential buildings in Anushaktinagar, Mumbai region. For this purpose, various non-destructive and partially destructive tests have been carried ... -
Confidence factor assessment for bridge structures under seismic loading
(2023)Mexico City area is considered as a vulnerable zone for seismic events. Recently, a 7.1 Mw seismic event occurred in 2017 that left economical and live loses, while in 2022, a 6.9 Mw left structural damage, including some ... -
Considerations for the Development of Evidence Theory Applications
(2023)Evidence theory provides a natural framework for analyzing imprecise probabilities. Evidence theory enables the explicit recognition of ignorance and is therefore suited for the analysis of missing or incomplete data. This ... -
Consistent Sensitivity Indices for p-Boxes
(2023)The main objective of global sensitivity analyses is to determine the influence of uncertain input parameters of a (simulation) model on the output parameters of the same model. Normally, for this purpose the uncertain ... -
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 ... -
Copula-based Quadratic Point Estimate Method for probabilistic moments evaluation
(2023)Numerous engineering problems often involve the evaluation of probabilistic moments of quantities of interest (QoI). Several computation techniques exist in the literature for such estimations, with sampling-based methods ... -
Corrosion rate values in real structures and their statistical distribution
(2023)For the assessment of the condition of a large structure as a football stadium suffering reinforcement corrosion, the first step is the identification of the corroding zones and their level of damage. In present communication ... -
