Sentence examples for bridge component from inspiring English sources

The most vulnerable bridge component is identified.

The following three variables were studied: temperature, initial anodic compartment pH and salt bridge component concentrations (agar and KCl).

A statistical screening approach, using design of experiments and incorporating seismic response information obtained from nonlinear time history analyses, was used to determine critical curved bridge component seismic response ranges.

Finally, the retrofit of columns and seismically designed columns can reduce column damage probabilities without significantly increasing demands to the other bridge component types, leading to a lower bridge system risk than that for the NSD bridges.

The influences of spatial and depth varying offshore seismic motions, soil-structure interaction (SSI) and seawater added mass on the bridge component and system fragilities are investigated and discussed.

The concept of vibration-based real-time bridge scour detection has been explored in recent years by investigating the change in the natural frequency spectrum of a bridge or a bridge component with respect to the scour depth.

The Behavior Tree notation makes it possible to realize this capability by inserting action-inert bridge component-state.

The design is accompanied by experimental tests on bridge components.

A 3-D finite element model has been developed for the railway bridges, which accounted for the bridge geometries, initial geometric imperfections, material nonlinearities of the bridge components, bridge boundary conditions, interactions among bridge components and bridge bracing systems.

The bridge components including bridge girders, piers, abutments, bearings, shear keys and reinforcement bars are included in the model.

It is found that nonlinear structural behaviour of the bridge components exists at highly elevated temperatures.
