Modelling the effect of sediment coarseness on local scour at wide bridge piers [PDF]
, 2017 Experimental data from a physical model of scouring around a cylindrical wide pier embedded in two types of uniform sediment beds are presented. The effects of sediment sizes and various pier widths on scour development and equilibrium scour depth of ...

Damping Modification Factors for Pile–Induced Filtering Effect
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Period–dependent Damping Modification Factors are usually applied to the 5%–damped pseudo–acceleration response spectrum at free field conditions to derive the seismic demand for structures with damping ratio other than 5%. Likewise, the response spectrum at the foundation level of pile–supported structures may differ from the free field ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate mechanical characterization of civil engineering structures after construction remains challenging due to the unique complexities of each structure, including geometric configurations, imperfect design modeling assumptions, soil conditions, and pervasive uncertainties in actual operational environments. Leveraging actual measurements,

Evaluation of Some Proposed Methods for Protecting Bridge Substructure Using Physical Models [PDF]
, 2003 Bridges constructed across streams with erodable beds are normally subjected to serious scouring during the flood at piers and abutment sites. As a result, scour holes will be formed at the bridge substructure.

Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two
