Development of Rock Embedded Drilled Shaft Resistance Factors in Korea based on Field Tests

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) is a limit state design method that has been applied worldwide. Because the data for determining LRFD factors in Korea has been insufficient, the resistance factors suggested by American Association of State ...

Adaptive stochastic deterioration modeling for evaluating pavement survey schedules in relation to performance and management cost

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 31, Page 6701-6721, 29 December 2025.
Abstract Pavement performance impacts transportation mobility, safety, and comfort, with timely maintenance relying on field survey data. However, frequent surveys are costly and impractical. This study examines how survey timing and frequency influence maintenance events and pavement deterioration to optimize management strategies.

Settlement Analysis of a Large Pile Group Supporting an LNG Storage Tank

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 16, Page 3858-3879, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks are often supported by large pile groups (>100 piles). The design of such foundations is generally governed by settlement rather than bearing capacity. However, minimal information is available regarding the settlement performance of the LNG tank foundations. This article first presents a comprehensive

Laboratory Procedure for Measuring the Effectiveness of Dust Control Palliatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Creation of fugitive dust on unpaved roads results in the loss of up to 25 mm (one inch) of surface aggregate annually (FHWA, 1998). On these roads, shearing forces created by vehicles dislodge the fine aggregate fraction (silt and clay) that binds the ...

A spatial graph learning framework for multi‐scale road safety management based on road‐curve features and open‐source data

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 28, Page 5228-5252, 28 November 2025.
Abstract Horizontal and vertical curves significantly affect crash risk due to their impact on driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, and sight distance. However, their combined effects and spatial interactions remain underexplored in large‐scale safety assessments. To address limitations in high‐resolution geometric data and insufficient spatial modeling,
