This manuscript proposes a methodology to leverage digitalisation to efficiently generate an overview of required condition-based railway track interventions, possession windows, and expected costs for railway networks at the beginning of the interve...

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been demonstrated to be one of the most powerful methods for image recognition, being applied in many fields, including civil and structural health monitoring in infrastructure asset management. Current State...

In recent years, there has been a notable concern about the production of cementitious composites due to its high cement consumption and the corresponding carbon footprint. This has led to significant progress within the construction sector in integr...

In earthquake-prone regions, predicting the impact of seismic events on highway bridges is crucial for post-earthquake effective emergency response and recovery planning. This paper presents a methodology for a simplified seismic risk assessment of b...

Traffic counts are essential for assessing road capacity to provide efficient, effective, and safe mobility. However, current methods for generating models for traffic count studies are often limited in their accuracy and applicability, which can lea...

This study focuses on the icing problem of electrified railway contact lines. Using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical simulations, a three-dimensional mesh model of the CuAg0.1AC120 contact line was developed. This study reveals the effects...

Managing emissions and congestion in urban transportation systems is a growing challenge, particularly when traffic dynamics are influenced by real-time conditions and infrastructure constraints. This study addresses this issue by proposing a cellula...

This study investigates the seismic performance of the V3.0 220 kV standard-designed substation of the Southern Power Grid, located in a high-intensity seismic zone, with a focus on the application of seismic isolation technology. Seismic isolation a...

The Building Inspection Priority Index (BIPI) method for masonry structures is an approximate procedure for the preliminary assessment of the seismic capacity of existing load-bearing masonry buildings and for the prioritization of each building for...

This study applied 2019 macro-level data from DATASUS to model traffic fatalities at the scene. Ordinary least squares (OLS) and censored regression models (TOBIT) were the methodologies used to identify the significant variables explaining the occur...
