Numerical investigation of extreme wave impact on coastal bridge deck using focused waves

Ocean Engineering, 2021
Horizontal and vertical impact forces on a coastal bridge deck with girders due to asymmetric and nonlinear wave loads induced by the action of focused wave groups have been investigated using open-source CFD model REEF3D.

Transfer time of the MDP and its effect on the time-dependent lateral deformation capacity of coastal bridge piers

Structures, 2021
In the maritime environment, the persistent attack of chloride ions will induce degradations of structural performance. Because of the surrounding exposure conditions, coastal bridge piers usually undergo discrepant deteriorations along the height ...

Chloride profiles in a coastal bridge

Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2012
This article addresses the results obtained in the field investigation performed on Barra Bridge, on the Portuguese Atlantic coast, to determine the degree of chloride transport into the concrete. A critical analysis is performed to quantify (i) the influence of the degree of exposure to the chloride environment, (ii) the average values of the apparent

Numerical investigation on hydrodynamic load of coastal bridge deck under joint action of solitary wave and wind

Ocean Engineering, 2020
Coastal bridges are vulnerable to extreme surges and waves during tsunamis and hurricanes. Many of them have been significantly damaged or destroyed during past extreme weather events, such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

Study on the Durability of Coastal Area Bridge

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
The durability of coastal area bridge structures is more prominent, first, the understanding of the durability of the concrete is insufficient before, and the corresponding measures has not taken; Second, accelerating deterioration of the reinforced concrete is due to the environment and climate factors.

Review of Wave Loads on Coastal Bridge Decks

Applied Mechanics Reviews, 2016
Recent natural extreme events, such as Hurricane Ike in the U.S. (2008), Tohoku tsunami in Japan (2011), and Typhoon Haiyan in Southeast Asia (2013), have caused significant damage to the decks of coastal bridges. The failure of the structure occurs when wave-induced loads on the decks of coastal bridges exceed the bridge capacity, resulting in partial

Numerical investigation on performance of submerged porous breakwater to mitigate hydrodynamic loads of coastal bridge deck under solitary wave

Ocean Engineering, 2020
Coastal bridges are vulnerable to extreme surges and waves generated during hurricanes and tsunamis. Over the past few decades, extensive research works were conducted to study the damage mechanisms of coastal bridges under the impact of extreme surges ...

Vulnerability of coastal bridges under extreme hurricane conditions

Bridge Structures, 2019
 Accurate methodologies to quantify the vulnerability and resiliency of coastal infrastructure to wave-induced forces are crucial to sound risk management in coastal regions where hurricane hazard is high. This paper describes a high-resolution coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) finite element model to evaluate the vulnerability of coastal bridges to ...
