Damage tolerance design approach such as the fatigue crack propagation approach
provides a more realistic solution for fatigue problems in concrete to overcome the …

The coupled effect of corrosion and fatigue deteriorates the performance of reinforced
concrete (RC) structures. This paper proposes a novel framework for the probabilistic life …

Many structures service in complex environments where multiple environmental factors
(MEFs) coexist, and the coupling effects of MEFs often aggravate structural damage, thus …

Pitting corrosion is one of the most common corrosion damages for steel reinforcing bars.
Fatigue crack usually initiates and propagates from pitting corrosion due to stress …

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the fatigue behavior of
pretensioned partially prestressed concrete beams with corroded prestressing wires or …

Reinforced concrete (RC) stands as the predominant construction material, and with the
growing prevalence of aging infrastructure, the safety assessment of deteriorating structures …

Corrosion and traffic-induced fatigue are two major threats to RC bridges in high-traffic and
corrosive environments. Coupled interaction of these two mechanisms, referred to as …

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of marine environmental condition on
durability of RC-corroded columns strengthened with FRP sheets. In this study, three retrofit …

This paper proposes a Physics-guided Mixture Density Network (PgMDN) model for
uncertainty quantification of regression-type analysis. It integrates a Mixture Density Network …

Corrosion increases the nominal stress of reinforcing bars and accelerates the fatigue crack
propagation. The stress redistribution induced by bond degradation between concrete and …
