Due to the influence of load, fatigue, corrosion, natural material aging and other long-term adverse factors, the state of the internal force of a cable-stayed bridge will be changed. These long-term effects can result in the bridge not meeting specified functional requirements, and potentially resulting in structural failure. This investigation focuses on the parameter identification of a gird...

a new design for replacing a missing anterior tooth is described. in this article, a lingually fixed partial denture, its advantages, disadvantages, indication and contraindications have been explained. the ability of this design to replace a single missing central or lateral incisor is discussed.

A concrete bridge over Interstate 70 east of Denver, Colorado was impacted by a fork lift being transported by a truck moving at a speed of approximately 75 mph. The forklift impacted the east face of the prestressed concrete I-beam bridge girder, resulting in severe cracking and concrete spalling on both sides of the eastmost girder. Polymer-modified repair mortar was used to repair spalled ar...

Elevated rail transit has been developed in some big cities in China in recent years. However, specialized codes for design of the bridges in the elevated rail transit system have not yet been established. Based on the prestressed concrete (PC) box girder bridges on Guangzhou metro line 4, some technical features of design principle and technology requisition, ensemble plan and design load of b...

Bridges are potentially one of the most seismically vulnerable structures in the highway system during earthquake &#10 &#10events. It is known that the seismic performance of transportation systems plays a key role in the post-earthquake emergency management. Hence, it is necessary to evaluate both physical and functional aspects of bridge structures. The physical aspects of the seismic perform...

One of the serious damages of tremendous earthquakes is the damage to bridges as the major components in an    arterial road network, as relief operation is interrupted following cutting roads. Regardless of the magnitude and severity of an earthquake, other factors are also important in the strength and seismic performance of concrete bridges. Freezing-thawing cycles are among the factors, whi...

In order to make the bridge finite element model more accurately and effectively reflect state of real bridge, this paper uses dynamic response on-site structural vibration frequency static load strain, proposes a method combining forces construct objective function for optimal analysis. The approach structure Yihe Super Bridge has been corrected. By using “ANOVA” find out significant parameter...

In this paper we develop the theory of quasispaces (for a Grothendieck topology) and of concrete quasitopoi, over a suitable base category. We introduce the notion of f-regular category and of f-regular functor. The f-regular categories are regular categories in which every family with a common codomain can be factorized into a strict epimorphic family followed by a (single) monomorphism. The f...
