One quarter of bridges in Canada and the United States need repair. The present study
provides a critical overview of the state-of-the-art existing condition assessment techniques …

Corrosion is one of the most frequently occurring problems in reinforced concrete (RC)
structures. The formation of rust products results in deterioration processes that decrease the …

Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) using nondestructive test data has become
promising for finite element (FE) model updating, model verification, structural evaluation …

The uncertainties in the numerical models used for the optimal sensor placement (OSP)
studies of civil infrastructures, specifically bridges, considerably affect the results. These …

针对马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗(MCMC) 模型修正方法在待修正参数维数较高时不易收敛和计算效率
低下的问题, 建立了融合自适应算法和相关向量机的快速模型修正方法. 基于广义无偏见先验 …

Compressed sensing (CS) is a powerful new data acquisition paradigm that seeks to
accurately reconstruct unknown sparse signals from very few (relative to the target signal …

Support vector machine models are generally considered as “black box” procedures, which
sometimes render them unexplainable and prone to over-fitting or under-fitting in absence of …

In this paper, we present a new Bayesian model updating method that could overcome the
problem of low sampling efficiency and over-reliance on single-chain proposal distribution of …

针对传统贝叶斯算法在高维参数下采样效率低且收敛难的问题, 建立了基于多链差分进化算法的
贝叶斯有限元模型修正方法. 在标准马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗(MCMC) 方法的基础上 …

The examination of existing civil structures must be differentiated from designing new
structures. To have sustainable and circular asset management, the behavior of these …
