Abstract:
To study the seismic performance of prefabricated single-segment steel jacket piers connected by grouting sleeves, two scaled symmetrical pier models with different anchorage lengths of the longitudinal reinforcement in the grouting sleeves and a comparative symmetrical cast-in-place (CIP) model were designed. OpenSees finite element models were established and shaking table tests were carried out on the three scaled pier models. The seismic response of each pier was compared and analyzed. Results showed the stiffness of the two prefabricated piers was greater than that of the CIP pier, and ot

Abstract:
Local scour around piers is the major cause of bridge failures, and its estimation is critical for safe design. The present study aims to identify a modified pier shape that can reduce local scour compared to a circular pier. In addition, M5 models are developed for maximum scour depth prediction and compared with the existing equations available in the literature. Thus, the effect of pier shape and alignment on local scour is experimentally investigated using three pier models with the same cross-sectional area placed in isolated and tandem arrangements under clear-water conditions.

Abstract:
Heavy structures in areas with expansive soils are commonly founded on piers resting beneath the surface active zone. During construction, the piers remain essentially unloaded and are exposed to potentially high tensile stresses that can split the pier unless the pier has been adequately reinforced. In this context, uncertainties arise relative to (i) the parameters governing the load transfer from the soil to the pier, (ii) the potential heave to be expected in a "free field" condition, when the soil movements are not restricted by the pier, and (iii) the estimation of the pier capacity to r

Bridge piers are designed to withstand not only axial loads of superstructures and passing vehicles but also out-of-plane loads such as earthquake excitations and vessel impact loads. Vessel impact on bridge piers can lead to substantial damages or even collapse of bridge structures. An increasing number of vessel collision accidents have been reported in the past decade. A lot of researches have been conducted for predicting barge impact loads and calculating structural responses. However, in practice it is not possible to design bridge structures to resist all levels of barge impact loads. M

Abstract The analysis of local scouring around bridge piers currently is based on typical river flood discharges. However, extreme events like flash floods with high velocity and discharge, carry wooden debris that accumulates upstream of the bridge pier. This results in additional forces due to flow diversion and reduction in flow area, so impacting hydraulic structures and exacerbating the scouring process. The study objective was to examine the impact of debris transported by flash floods on the depth and distribution patterns of scouring around bridge piers. This research was conducted in

Abstract Local scour around bridge piers is one of the main causes of bridge failure all over the world. Experimental and hydraulic models were carried out to investigate two types of scour reduction methods around a single cylindrical pier, namely the pier's slots and collars. The efficiency of various types of pier slots and circular collars around the pier's base in reducing scour were studied. A new shape of a conical collar was developed by the authors and examined along with other shapes. The results revealed that collars, in general, have more influence in reducing scour depth than slot

Abstract:
The engineering design of a hydraulic structure such as a river bridge requires consideration of the factors that affect the safety of the structure. Among them, one of the most important variables is bridge foundation scour. However, engineering experience seems to indicate that computation of scour depth using current scour formulas tends to overpredict scour in comparison to field measurements. The result can be an overdesigned bridge foundation that increases the cost of the bridge. One possible reason for the overprediction is the current practice of adding separate estimates of contract

For example, we show why various specializations of Hall-Littlewood polynomials produce the Schur symmetric polynomials, the elementary symmetric polynomials, or the t-analogue of factorials.

Abstract:
<p>This study proposes a π-type composite beam bridge with a fixed pier-girder system. This structural configuration integrates the superstructure with the substructure while incorporating a UHPC layer to mitigate concrete cracking. To evaluate its mechanical behavior, a scaled model static load test was conducted. The study analyzed strain distribution, deformation characteristics, and crack propagation patterns, providing insights into the failure mechanisms and load-bearing capacity of the structure. The results indicate that the negative bending region at the mid-pier is the most vul

Abstract:
<p>This study addresses the condition assessment of a reinforced concrete (RC) bridge pier after an earthquake based on seismic responses. This study proposes a physics-informed neural network (PINN) for solving a nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structural identification problem to localize and quantify damages. This study adopts a stacked bilinear rotational spring model. Governing equations, Newmark-β method, and hysteresis information are incorporated into a loss function of a deep-layered neural network. The method was validated using real seismic responses, which were obtai

Abstract:
Earthquakes, which can cause tremendous local stress and strain on infrastructure, can cause reinforced concrete (RC) bridges to collapse due to the concrete cracking and fracture of the steel reinforcement rebars. The fracture of longitudinal reinforcing steel due to low-cycle fatigue is one of the main causes of failure in RC structures under earthquake loading. The purpose of this research is to include the effects of low-cycle fatigue fracture of longitudinal reinforcing steel bars on the seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge piers. To obtain a greater understanding of low-cycl

Abstract:
Near-fault earthquakes can have major effects on transportation systems due to the structural damage they impose on bridges. Therefore, it is imperative to assess the seismic damage of bridges appropriately, and this research focuses on reinforced concrete (RC) bridges. This research advances the seismic performance assessment of RC single-column pier-supported bridges with flexural failure under near-fault ground motion by use of ductility coefficients and damage indices. The methodology included modeling fiber-based nonlinear beam-column elements to simulate the damage development process of

Abstract:
The original derivation of the PIR formula referenced in 49 CFR 192 is contained in the Gas Research Institute (GRI) report by C-FER Technologies (C-FER), "A Model for Sizing High Consequence Areas Associated with Natural Gas Pipelines" (Stephens 2000). It must be recognized that this formula was derived solely on the premise that thermal radiation from a jet/trench fire is the dominant hazard related to pipe rupture and subsequent ignition. Since natural gas is non-toxic and significantly lighter than air, this premise is valid. However, there are certain pipeline operators transporting flamm

Abstract:
The motivation for this project developed from testing of a full scale building isolated with triple friction pendulum bearings on the E-defense shake table in Japan. The test demonstrated experimentally that the vertical component of ground motion can amplify both the base shear and the story acceleration in the isolated building. Vertical shaking introduced high-frequency variation in the axial force of the bearings, and, consequently, a high-frequency component in the bearing lateral force, which excited higher structural modes in the building. Since vertical bridges are flexible in the ver

Abstract:
This report presents a wave method to be used for the structural identification and damage detection of structural components in bridges, e.g., bridge piers. This method has proven to be promising when applied to real structures and large amplitude responses in buildings (e.g., mid-rise and high-rise buildings). This study is the first application of the method to damaged bridge structures. The bridge identification was performed using wave propagation in a simple uniform shear beam model. The method identifies a wave velocity for the structure by fitting an equivalent uniform shear beam model
