A simple model to evaluate the effects of relative displacements between the ground anchors of a suspension bridge is proposed. An equation system is defined, which allows for the evaluation of the structural response under a general displacement set...
As part of the Horizon 2020 InfraROB project aimed at enhancing road safety through innovative robotic solutions, a compact autonomous vehicle has been developed to repair asphalt potholes. Central to this system is a 3D printer capable of extruding...
The Deep Cement Mixing Integrated Drilling, Mixing and Jetting (DMJ) method represents a novel approach to the construction of slurry piles in the Yellow River Floodplain, offering the potential to enhance the quality of these structures. In order to...
When Hurricane Maria struck the island of Puerto Rico in September, 2017, it devastated the island’s critical infrastructures, including the well-documented total loss of electric power systems. The strong interdependencies or associations amon...
The development of sustainable infrastructure is essential to address the challenges of climate change and reduce CO2 emissions. The use of alternative materials, such as agro-industrial ashes and silica fume, emerges as a promising option to enhance...
This study investigated the combined effects of calcium carbide waste (CCW) and lateritic soil (LS) on sustainable concrete’s fresh and mechanical properties as a construction material for infrastructure development. The study will explore the...
Structural health monitoring (SHM) plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of infrastructure in general, especially critical infrastructure such as bridges. SHM systems allow the real-time monitoring of structural conditions and early detection o...
Predictive maintenance can help infrastructure managers to reduce costs and improve railway availability while ensuring safety. However, its accuracy depends on reliable data from various sources, especially track measurement data. When analysing tra...
One of the main priorities of airport authorities is to maintain a high level of serviceability of runway pavements due to the high safety requirements for aircraft at high speeds. Accordingly, the assessment of the functional condition of airfield p...
This paper proposes a method to investigate the design properties of geotechnical seismic isolation (GSI). This technique has been the object of many research contributions, both experimental and numerical. However, methods that may be used by practi...
