Probabilistic Fatigue Life Updating for Railway Bridges Based on Local Inspection and Repair [PDF]
Railway bridges are exposed to repeated train loads, which may cause fatigue failure. As critical links in a transportation network, railway bridges are expected to survive for a target period of time, but sometimes they fail earlier than expected.

An Enhanced Information Retrieval Method Based on Ontology for Bridge Inspection
Bridge management systems (BMSs) are widely used to assist an inspector in performing element-level bridge inspection. Retrieving and determining target elements to be inspected becomes an important factor in the efficiency of bridge inspection.
