Reliability analysis is a probabilistic approach to determine a safety level of a system.
Reliability is defined as a probability of a system (or a structure, in structural engineering) to …

The severity of roadway departure crashes mainly depends on the roadside features,
including the sideslope, fixed-object density, offset from fixed objects, and shoulder width …

Stipulating a space headway is a pivotal concern in traffic engineering. Although
consideration of a larger headway leads to safer traffic movement, consideration for a …

As a matter of fact, structural drift is a random variable that is associated with several bases
of the uncertainties related to the loading excitation and structural resistance. Hence, it …

The main objective of critical excitation methods is to reveal the worst possible response of
structures. This goal is accomplished by considering the uncertainties of ground motion …

Tunnels are one of the most important constructions in civil engineering. The damage to
these structures caused enormous costs. Therefore, the safe and economic design of these …

While the existing structures, even recently constructed ones are subjected to the critical
earthquakes, the catastrophic devastations are expected to occur. Therefore, at least for …

The severity of roadway departure crashes mainly depends on the roadside features,
including sideslope, fixed-object density, offset to fixed objects, shoulder width, etc. Collision …

A roadway departure (RwD) crash, comprising run-off-road (ROR) and cross median/cross
centerline head-on collisions, is defined as a crash in which a vehicle crosses an edge line …
