Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Reef‐forming shellfish facilitate biodiversity through providing structural complexity in benthic habitats. Globally, reef‐forming shellfish have been overharvested to near extirpation, with a corresponding loss in biodiversity. Mussel shell material, an aquaculture by‐product, has the potential to rehabilitate ecosystem services ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2930-2947, September 2026.ABSTRACT Self‐centering rocking structures outperform conventional ones since they show zero post‐earthquake damage and excellent recentering; however, their applications remain limited due to concerns that rocking is extremely sensitive and nonrepeatable. This paper investigates the repeatability and parasitic out‐of‐plane motion of controlled rocking

Characteristics of Flow Structure around Cylindrical Bridge Piers in Pressure-Flow Conditions [PDF]
Water, 2019 The emerging shift of extreme events, combined with an aging infrastructure and bridges, highlights the potential increase in the risk of damage and catastrophic failure of bridges with climate change. This article analyzes the behavior of the flow and turbulence features in proximity to bridge piers, at two different moments of the scour temporal ...

Effects of Roughness on Riprap Stability around Cylindrical Bridge Pier in 180 Degree River Bend [PDF]
مهندسی منابع آب, 2017 Bridge is the most important structure in road building where the route crosses a river. Local scour around bridge piers built over a curve in a river is an important reason for its failure.
