considering multiple failure modes and limit states is proposed for reliability analysis of …

This study investigates different pipe recovery strategies of water distribution networks
(WDNs) from the seismic resilience perspective. A demand-based seismic resilience index …

To reduce the high computational cost of the probability density evolution method (PDEM)
for structural reliability analysis, an active-learning reliability method that combines the …

The evolution of fatigue damage in materials of structures under cyclic loading is a time-
varying cumulative process. Method on time-varying fatigue reliability analysis is scarce due …

Pipe failure prediction has become a crucial demand of operators in daily operation and
asset management due to the increase in operation risks of water distribution networks. In …

Opportunistic maintenance (OM) reduces maintenance costs by combining the maintenance
of multiple components. It has recently been widely used in complex systems. However, few …

With the increase in the operation risks of water distribution networks (WDNs), the prediction
of pipe failures is of great significance in developing efficient maintenance strategies. This …

As the main way for the long-distance transportation of refined products, multi-products
pipelines are of vital importance to the regional energy security. The supply reliability …

This study proposes the risk assessment framework of water distribution networks with a
focus on the determination of weights of various risk indices. First, the pipe risk list is built, in …

The subsea wellhead (SW) system is a crucial connection between blowout preventors
(BOPs) and subsea oil and gas wells. Excited by cyclical fatigue dynamic loadings, the SW …
