The disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) and spent nuclear fuel (SF) presents a unique challenge for the prediction of the long-term performance of corrodible structures since HLW/SF containers are expected, in some cases, to have lifetimes of ...

Temperature is the main driver of bridge response. It is continuously applied and may have complex distributions across the bridge. Daily temperature loads force bridges to undergo deformations that are larger than or equal to peak-to-peak traffic loads....

This paper explores the roles of empiricism and determinism in science and concludes that the intellectual exercise that we call ?science? is best described as the transition from empiricism (i.e., observation) to determinism, which is the philosophy tha...

The objective of this paper is to propose tools for the lifecycle management of infrastructure by showing the slow degradation processes for which inspection data are accessible, especially the data obtained from non-destructive testing (NDT) and structu...

Most regulations on the manufacturing of concrete for reinforced concrete structures rest on durability models that consider the corrosion of reinforcements. Those models are based on factors such as humidity, frost, presence of chlorides, and internal c...

Corrosion damage is a serious problem in steel structures. The cross-sectional loss in the structural members due to corrosion reduces the load-carrying capacity of the members and the stability of their structures. In this study, the main reasons for th...
