Structure-borne noise of steel and concrete box girders in an urban metro system: A hybrid evaluation and parametric study

open access: yesJournal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control, 2023
Metro systems provide an efficient, convenient, and expeditious way to travel around crowded routes. Because these systems are established in cities, residential buildings close to metro viaducts are significantly affected by structure-borne noise (SBN).

Appearance Inspection‐Based Typical Damage Investigation of Concrete Curved Girder‐Type Bridges Subjected to Temperature and Vehicle Effect

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Technical approach of the article. ABSTRACT This study focuses primarily on concrete curved girder‐type bridges, which are commonly used for urban roads and highways. Over the last two decades, practical experience in bridge engineering has shown that these bridges have unique mechanical and damage characteristics, unlike conventional straight bridges.

Numerical Simulation of Post‐Yield Hysteretic Behavior of Lap‐Spliced Reinforced Concrete Bridge Pier Walls Under Earthquake Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1356-1376, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete pier walls designed before the 1970s often incorporate lap splice in potential plastic‐hinge regions. Previous experimental tests indicate that most of pier walls experienced post‐yield lap splice failure, necessitating a modeling approach that captures not only lap splice strength but also deformation capacity.

Structural Health Monitoring of a Unidirectional Isolation Bridge: Bidirectional Seismic Behavior, Stochastic Model Updating, and Prediction

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 759-780, March 2026.
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,

Stress Corrosion Tests for Prestressing Steels—Part 2: Susceptibility of Quenched and Tempered Wires—Influence of Chromium

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, Volume 77, Issue 1, Page 36-45, January 2026.
Cr‐alloyed quenched and tempered prestressing steel wires were found to be as highly susceptible as non‐Cr‐alloyed ones. This finding is in contrast to the known literature. A newly developed and reproducible method for assessing susceptibility to hydrogen‐induced stress corrosion cracking was used.

Evaluation of Bearing Capacity of Assembled Prestressed Concrete Continuous Box‐Girder Bridges Based on Virtual Loading of Influence Lines

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In order to accurately identify the influence line from the dynamic response of vehicle‐induced bridges to rapidly evaluate bridge bearing capacity, an influence line identification method based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) and the Tikhonov regularization method is proposed.

Theory and Field to Determine the Construction of Bridge and Tunnel Linked Segment

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Bridge–tunnel linked sections characterized by ultra‐small clear distances and steep slopes pose significant construction risks due to strong spatial constraints and complex mechanical interactions between adjacent underground structures. In such conditions, excavation method selection becomes a critical factor governing construction safety and ...

Seismic fragility of concrete box girder bridges in Malaysia

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
In Malaysia, the majority of structures and infrastructures have not been designed for seismic actions. Recent earthquakes in the country, however, has raised the attention of authorities toward the seismic vulnerability of these structures. Bridges are among the crucial infrastructures that their functionality during ground motions is of great ...
