Galvanized Reinforcement in Bridge and Coastal Construction

IABSE Reports, 2019
<p>This paper discusses the use of galvanizing for the corrosion protection of steel reinforcement in bridges and coastal structures exposed to deicing salts or the marine environment. Whilst providing both barrier and sacrificial protection to the base steel, the galvanized coating is also effectively immune to carbonation effects in concrete ...

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 ...

Computation of wave loads on the superstructures of coastal highway bridges

Ocean Engineering, 2011
Abstract Recent hurricanes have caused severe structural damages to a number of coastal highway bridges along the US coast of the Gulf of Mexico. A large amount of bridge superstructure sections were displaced or pushed off the substructure by storm surge and wave action.

Application of artificial neural networks to wave load prediction for coastal bridges

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Communication and Information Processing, 2017
Predicting quickly and accurately the wave forces on the bridge superstructures from wave height and bridge structure information is important in facilitating bridge design and estimating potential damages to coastal bridges by hurricanes and tsunamis for disaster management.
