Book Description
Bridge Maintenance, Safety, Management, Life-Cycle Sustainability and Innovations contains lectures and papers presented at the Tenth International Conference on Bridge Maintenance, Safety and Management (IABMAS 2020), held in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, April 11–15, 2021. This volume consists of a book of extended abstracts and a USB card containing the full papers of 571 contributions presented at IABMAS 2020, including the T.Y. Lin Lecture, 9 Keynote Lectures, and 561 technical papers from 40 countries. The contributions presented at IABMAS 2020 deal with the state of the art as well as emerging concepts and innovative applications related to the main aspects of maintenance, safety, management, life-cycle sustainability and technological innovations of bridges. Major topics include: advanced bridge design, construction and maintenance approaches, safety, reliability and risk evaluation, life-cycle management, life-cycle sustainability, standardization, analytical models, bridge management systems, service life prediction, maintenance and management strategies, structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing and field testing, safety, resilience, robustness and redundancy, durability enhancement, repair and rehabilitation, fatigue and corrosion, extreme loads, and application of information and computer technology and artificial intelligence for bridges, among others. This volume provides both an up-to-date overview of the field of bridge engineering and significant contributions to the process of making more rational decisions on maintenance, safety, management, life-cycle sustainability and technological innovations of bridges for the purpose of enhancing the welfare of society. The Editors hope that these Proceedings will serve as a valuable reference to all concerned with bridge structure and infrastructure systems, including engineers, researchers, academics and students from all areas of bridge engineering.

Book Description
Captures Current Developments in Bridge Design and MaintenanceRecent research in bridge design and maintenance has focused on the serviceability problems of older bridges with aging joints. The favored solution of integral construction and design has produced bridges with fewer joints and bearings that require less maintenance and deliver increased

Book Description
In this study the fiber composite bridge decks were subjected to thermal gradients to obtain the temperature difference between the top and bottom surface of the decks and to determine the thermal properties of the deck. The fiber composite bridge decks were fabricated in sizes of 2 feet wide x 8 feet long x .5 feet deep and 4 feet wide x 8 feet long x .5 feet deep specimens by Kansas Structural Composites Inc. The project consisted of 3 specimens of size 2 feet in width x 8 feet in length x .5 feet in depth with ribs oriented along longitudinal direction, 3 specimens of size 2 feet in width x 8 feet in length x .5 feet in depth with ribs oriented along transverse direction and a specimen of size 4 feet in width x 8 feet in length x .5 feet in depth with ribs oriented along transverse direction. Two specimens with ribs oriented along longitudinal direction and two specimens with ribs oriented along transverse direction of size 2 feet in width x 8 feet in length x .5 feet in depth were subjected to temperature greater than 120 degrees F with unrestrained ends. Four tests were carried out on two specimens having ribs oriented along longitudinal direction and two specimens having ribs oriented along transverse direction with the shorter ends restrained. The top surface was exposed to constant temperature until the temperature and the strain linearize at the bottom surface of the fiber composite deck to obtain the difference in temperature between the top and bottom surface of the deck. The decks were restrained using a mechanical setup made up of fiber composite sections. A single specimen of size 4 feet in width x 8 feet in length x .5 feet in depth was tested for thermal loads greater than 120 degrees F with unrestrained ends. The strain readings were recorded using strain gage technology from Vishay Micro Measurements and the displacement was measured for specimens with restrained ends using cable extension displacement sensor at half span. A prototype of fiber composite deck was modeled using PRO-E and analyzed using ANSYS FEM software.

Book Description
Creep and Fatigue in Polymer Matrix Composites, Second Edition, updates the latest research in modeling and predicting creep and fatigue in polymer matrix composites. The first part of the book reviews the modeling of viscoelastic and viscoplastic behavior as a way of predicting performance and service life. Final sections discuss techniques for modeling creep rupture and failure and how to test and predict long-term creep and fatigue in polymer matrix composites. - Reviews the latest research in modeling and predicting creep and fatigue in polymer matrix composites - Puts a specific focus on viscoelastic and viscoplastic modeling - Features the time-temperature-age superposition principle for predicting long-term response - Examines the creep rupture and damage interaction, with a particular focus on time-dependent failure criteria for the lifetime prediction of polymer matrix composite structures that are illustrated using experimental cases
