In the present study, a multi-hazard approach as well as investigation proposed to assess how service life of the bridges affected due to the amalgamation of the physical deterioration (aging) along with earthquake hazards. In this approach, the Weibull distribution is found suitable and employed for determining deterioration in terms of hazard function ha(t) of the bridges due to aging. Conversely, the northeast (NE) region of India is highly tectonically active and prone to earthquakes of higher magnitude (Mw>8). Considering the high seismicity in the study region, respective active faults and their corresponding maximum PGA values are taken into account to evaluate the earthquake hazard of the region in a site specific manner. By applying this proposed approach, significant site specific in-depth ideas and facts about their service life span could be evaluated considering the condition of existing bridges for satisfactory performance that would be helpful in taking rational decisions for the bridge management system (BMS) in terms of safety, rehabilitation, repair and inspection strategies of the bridges available in the study region for sustainable growth.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":"5 1","pages":"223 - 235"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1783123","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43404848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results for cube testing revealed that the use of SF and MK produces considerably good strength concrete. Based on the experimental observations, an approach to predict the compressive strength using regression modeling was suggested. The result of which rendered a reasonable agreement with the available test data. Moreover, two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models have also been proposed to predict the compressive strength of concrete using the data obtained from the experimental exercise. Randomized stratification method was used to divide the data samples into training and testing subsets in line with machine learning best practices. The results of the ANN models were found to be in good agreement with experimental values. When compared with the results of empirical models, the respective ANN models gave a better prediction for the compressive strength. This substantiates the reliability of ANN over the empirical models.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":"5 1","pages":"252 - 264"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1783120","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43572440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Binarization on the images using Otsu’s thresholding method was done followed by the porosity determination. As the interfacial attributes were the primary concern, the porosity was determined from the aggregate surface to the 100 μm width. A total of 24 sections were analyzed and the mean values were plotted. Although the PS Ball incorporated mortar exhibited 10% lower strength at 28-day age, it showed stronger and less porous aggregate- matrix interface between (from particle surface up to 35 μm width) as compared to that of normal mortar containing sand, which is justifiable by the chemical composition of PS Ball attributed to the potential chemical binding. Further, the porosity decreased as the distance from aggregate surface increased.

A tall building with a unique structural form, brings forth admonishing challenges for the structural designers to deal with. Such a contemporary inclination towards the fabrication of free-form structures has posed enormous challenges to the modern-day structural engineering community, and consequently, has faced reactions in the form of tremendous researches pertaining to complex building specific issues. This paper extensively reviews six case studies of recent tall buildings that possess a challenging architecture with tortuous structural features to cope with the gravity and lateral loadings. Six representative tall buildings have been chosen from all over the world, which have distinctive features in terms of their structural systems. This paper discusses the fundamental characteristics of these tall buildings in the world and presents the challenges faced during the modelling, analysis, design, and construction of these skyscrapers, along with the brief of methodologies which were eventually adopted to cope with these challenges.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":"5 1","pages":"155 - 170"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1765270","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47070698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Dynamic Clamp is hydraulically controlled to apply braking force on a belt via reference from an operator input. Belt braking force is proportional to hydraulic pressure applied. The clamp is not designed to be “fail safe” with the clamp opening when hydraulic system pressure is lost. Hand calculations were used along with finite element analysis to determine the structural stresses induced by the combined clamping force and belt tension. A 20 Metric Tonne belt tension capacity (196.1 kN lateral load) has been nominated for design purposes. A belt thickness of 50 mm has been assumed as a worst case for design purposes. In addition, a dynamic coefficient of friction of 0.2 has been assumed for the contact surfaces between the belt and the clamping beam surfaces. Australian Standard AS1418.1 – Cranes, Hoists and Winches General and AS3990 Mechanical Equipment – Steelwork have been utilized for determining the suitability of the design. The design meets the requirements of the standards for the proposed clamping loads and belt tensions.

The use of silica fume in cement and concrete technology has unexpectedly increased over the most recent couple of years with the advent of high-performance concrete.

In the present work, the cementing efficiency factor for silica fume at different percentage replacement level has been assumed, and at the constant water to binder ratio, the compressive strength has been obtained. Further, the results of 28-day compressive strengths of silica fume concrete have been examined using a response surface model and a relationship has been projected.

Based on the spectral formulation of a Timoshenko member with the consideration of soil–structure interaction, the simulated model of a wind turbine was investigated in this work in order to quantify the various effects due to defects as well as foundation stiffness on the dynamic responses of the tower. This paper focuses on the analysis of the tower structure using the modal curvature data of the first vibration mode. Preliminary results show that the curvature index defined in the proposed method is capable of indicating not only the damaged region of the tower, but also the degree of stiffness softening that the foundation system may have encountered. The presented methodology demonstrates potential as a feasible analysis method to be applied in a vibration-based assessment scheme for the wind turbine tower.","PeriodicalId":43844,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance","volume":"5 1","pages":"104 - 112"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2020-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/24705314.2020.1729518","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42261774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To enhance the performance of production wells and reduce maintenance expenditures, a paradigm shift from corrective maintenance to proactive risk based maintenance is necessary. The feasibility of fully probabilistic risk-based inspection planning approach for oil wells has been investigated as pilot study carried out at Danish Hydrocarbon Research and Technology Centre (DHRTC). After establishing a baseline for the system taxonomy, failure modes and their dependencies on deterioration mechanisms, a data collection and analysis lead to the calibration of a corrosion probabilistic model, based on pit size measured from tubing inspections. This manuscript presents the results of the feasibility study, the calibration of a bespoke corrosion model for wells in the Danish sector of North Sea, the reliability analysis and the identification of a threshold value for the pit penetration to be compared with current oil & gas (O&G) regulations. The model is further used to compare expected maintenance costs for corrective maintenance and condition-based maintenance.
