This study aims to analyze the longitudinal seismic performance of a typical multi-span continuous girder bridge with seat-type abutments under earthquake excitation, especially accounting for different abutment behaviors. Three-dimensional finite elemen...

This paper examined the opportunities of composite double-layer grid superstructures in short-to-medium span bridge decks. It was empirically shown here that a double-layer grid deck system in composite action with a thin layer of two-way reinforced conc...

Recently, the repair and maintenance of structures has been necessary to prevent these structures? sudden collapse and to prevent human and financial damage. A natural factor in marine environments that destroys structures and reduces their life is the p...

Given the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events, and the casualties and cost associated with bridge collapse events, explaining the flood behavior for the collapse sites would be of great necessity. In this study, annual peak flows of two hu...

River bridge piers may collapse due to the local scour around their foundations. It is known that local scour is an effect of the three-dimensional flow field that develops near the pier and that the geometric complexity of a non-cylindrical pier may, co...

The recession of a coast can destabilize coastal cliffs. The stability of a cliff is controlled by a rock bridge. Identifying the volume-expansion point of rock bridges is crucial to assess cliff stability, but currently there are few identifying methods...
