1. Characterization of train-induced aerodynamic loads on high-speed railway vertical noise barriers
Sammanfattning : High-Speed Railway (HSR) technology requires the deployment of noise barriers to mitigate noise pollution affecting nearby residents. As train speeds increase, so does the magnitude of aerodynamic effects such as aerodynamic noise and the pressure on these barriers, meaning that these structures require robust sound insulation and structural load-bearing capacities.

2. Redundancy and Robustness Quantification of Bridge Systems based on Reliability and Risk Approaches
Sammanfattning : Over the last few decades, evaluating the performance of existing structures has become increasingly important, particularly as the number of bridges reaching their design life continues to rise. As a result, there is a growing need for effective and accurate procedures to guide the assessment of the current structures' capacity and safety levels to implement appropriate maintenance and rehabilitation strategies.

3. A concrete dam assessment approach using probabilistic non-linear finite element analysis and scale model testing
Sammanfattning : Dams are vital infrastructure for society as they provide various services (e.g., flood prevention, storage of byproducts from mining operations, water storage for irrigation and hydropower generation) by the impoundment of liquids. LÄS MER
