Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Rail-to-ground Insulation Defect Diagnosis Method Based on Spatiotemporal Correlation of Rail Potential

open access: yesChengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
Objective The data of various monitoring points regarding rail potential as monitoring object is correlated in time and space, and the direct manifestation of changes in rail-to-rebar structural resistance is reflected in rail potential variation.

Vision language models for bridge inspections: A review of applications in image‐based damage documentation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

Ultrasonic denoising for intelligent operation and maintenance of heavy-haul railways: Noise mechanisms and suppression methods

open access: yesCommunications in Transportation Research
Heavy-haul railways are critical for transporting freight. However, prolonged wheel–rail interactions cause frequent rail defects, particularly in small-radius curve sections.

An Overview of High‐Temperature Superconducting Cables in DC Systems: Unlocking Potential for High‐Voltage DC Networks

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides an overview of high‐temperature superconducting (HTS) cables in DC systems, with a focus on their deployment in high‐voltage DC (HVDC) networks. The assessment of HTS cable properties—such as extremely low electrical resistance, high current‐carrying capacity and a compact geometry—and their comparison with those of ...

Research on Embodied Intelligence Technology for Electric Power Equipment Based on Large‐Scale Pre‐Trained Models

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the development of electric power artificial intelligence (AI) technology, many complicated challenges emerged during application. Traditional AI algorithms work well in specialised tasks such as detection and classification. However, they are unlikely to solve general problems.
