The escalating occurrence of ship-pier collisions poses a substantial threat to coastal bridge
infrastructures. To avert such accidents, various specifications have introduced several …

With coupled wind and wave loads suffered by sea-crossing bridges, it is challenging to
include uncertainties for assessing bridge serviceability. In this study, an efficient …

Vessel collision is a common cause of structural failure to bridges crossing navigable
waterways. Although numerous efforts focus on the safety evaluation of bridge structures …

The response assessment of bridges crossing navigable waterways under vessel collisions
is commonly conducted assuming intact bridge models. However, local scour may occur at …

Bridge structures that span roads and highways are often at the risk of over-height vehicle
collision. Such collisions can cause structural damage to bridge girders, adversely affecting …

Owing to undesired hydraulic effects, bridge collapse accidents have become increasingly
frequent during the flooding season. Considering hydraulic effects in bridge design is …

Bridges crossing navigable waterways may be subjected to scour within their service life.
Scour has complex mechanisms due to its site-and time-dependent characteristics, making it …

This chapter explores the significance of intensity measures for flood hazards in assessing
the fragility of bridges. Flood hazards pose considerable challenges to bridge infrastructure …

The present paper develops a framework for the time-dependent reliability assessment
method of aged bridge under ship collision. The main environmental aspects that influence …
