ABSTRACT The current practice of flood loss prediction presents limitations in accurately predicting building flood losses at multiple scales. While whole‐building estimates can more accurately predict high‐level losses (i.e., large groups of buildings), a significant analysis error is revealed with small‐scale (i.e., individual, or small groups of ...

Roadway Culvert Asset Management: Systematic Review and Future Research Directions
Culverts are essential for the sustainability and safety of transportation infrastructure. Despite their significance, they are often insufficiently managed, leading to significant socioeconomic and environmental repercussions. This systematic review critically evaluates the current state of roadway culvert asset management (RCAM), focusing on ...

Evaluation of an Alternative Tunnel Support System to Build Shallow Metro Stations at Urban Areas
Ground surface settlement is the most significant restriction when constructing shallow metro station tunnels in urban areas. The umbrella arch method (UAM) is generally applied as a tunnel support method. However, UAM becomes inadequate in some soil conditions, such as loose sand or soft clay.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the diffusion mechanism of polymer slurry in rough fractures under slurry–rock coupling, which has important practical significance for polymer grouting repair of rock fractures. The rock mass fracture with random roughness is constructed in the spatial frequency domain, and the random rough fracture slurry ...
