Fatigue experimental study on full-scale large sectional model of orthotropic steel deck of urban rail bridge

Fatigue Reliability Assessment of Orthotropic Steel Bridge Decks Based on Probabilistic Multi-scale Finite Element Analysis

The orthotropic steel deck (OSD) has been utilized successfully for thousands of bridges worldwide; however, fatigue cracking of the OSD has been observed frequently due to the complicated welded details combined with stresses that can be difficult to quantify, and the uncertainties in fatigue damage accumulation. In this paper, a fatigue reliability assessment method is proposed based on a com...

Delft University of Technology Fatigue Assessment of Full-Scale Retrofitted Orthotropic Bridge Decks

a study on insurer solvency by panel data model: the case of iranian insurance market

the aim of this thesis is an approach for assessing insurer’s solvency for iranian insurance companies. we use of economic data with both time series and cross-sectional variation, thus by using the panel data model will survey the insurer solvency.

State-of-art of Asphalt surfacings on long-spanned orthotropic steel deck in China

Reliable and durable asphalt surfacing systems still remain to be desired for the long-spanned orthotropic steel bridges as the nationally and internationally reports on distresses in deck pavement. Based on ten-year research works, this paper has presented a brief review and discussion of the Chinese practices and experiences of deck pavement on long-spanned steel bridges, including issues of ...

Study on Performance of Epoxy Asphalt Concrete Applied in the Deck Pavement of Pingsheng Steel Bridge

As a fair deck pavement material of its kind used in steel bridge, the epoxy asphalt concrete is considered much more superior to ordinary asphalt concrete in terms of road performance, while still greatly subject to the level of design and construction. Starting from a practical case of the epoxy asphalt concrete that has been applied in the deck pavement of Pingsheng Steel Bridge, this paper ...
