Steel railway bridges of all types comprise a large portion of the infrastructure inventory of
several countries. Due to the ageing of these structures and increasing traffic loadings …

Metals' remaining fatigue life (RFL) forecast is considered to be an overly complicated
process among engineers in practical applications, especially since a fast and acceptable …

In many countries and regions, the traffic infrastructure projects suffer from low funding.
There budget is tight for new infrastructure building and, thus, the importance of inspection …

Welding is a rapid and flexible connection method that enables the construction of a broad
range of steel bridges. However, weld defects are inevitably introduced in the welded joints …

Engineers assessing and strengthening the structural safety of 19th-century wrought-iron
riveted connections need information on the materials applied, the riveting technology and …

Structural stress-based methodologies for fatigue analysis of welded railway bridges are
proposed in this thesis. Local approaches to fatigue are investigated for welded bridge …
