Corrosion of steel bars embedded in reinforced concrete (RC) structures reduces the service
life and durability of structures causing early failure of structure, which costs significantly for …

In recent years, significant advances have been accomplished in the fields of modeling,
analysis, and design of deteriorating civil engineering systems, and novel approaches to life …

Risk based inspection (RBI) planning for engineering systems is considered. Due to
difficulties in formulating computationally tractable approaches for RBI for systems, most …

Corrosion-induced cracking is observed to vary spatially over concrete surfaces. A two-
dimensional spatial time-dependent reliability model is developed to predict the likelihood …

This paper presents an intelligent photo interpretation approach to automatically monitor
and characterize dense interconnected microcracks in strain-hardening cementitious …

For offshore wind turbines, costs to operation and maintenance (OM) are substantial. This
paper describes a risk‐based life cycle approach for optimal planning of OM. The approach …

Rebar is embedded in concrete to create reinforced concrete (RC). Rebar carries most of the
tensile stress and gives compressively loaded concrete fracture resistance. However …

Deep learning-based computer vision techniques have high efficiency in assessing concrete
cracks from images, and the assessment can be automated using robots for higher …

This paper presents a model to quantify the economic value gained by implementation of an
inspection and preventive maintenance program for managing an ageing component …

Decision making subject to uncertain information, whether fake or factual, in the context of
management of socio-technical systems, is critically discussed from both philosophical and …
