Fatigue safety examination of a 150-year old riveted railway bridge

Eugen Brühwiler

Built in 1859, the railway bridge over the Rhine between Koblenz (Switzerland) and Waldshut (Germany) consists of a three span continuous riveted steel truss girder and an approach viaduct in natural stone masonry. Due to ever increasing traffic demands th ...

Motorway Traffic Risks Identification Model - MyTRIM Methodology and Application

Minh Hai Pham

Road traffic crashes are becoming increasing concerns in many countries. In Europe, many efforts have been devoted to improve road traffic safety yet the important target of halving the number of yearly road deaths in 2010 could not be achieved in many Eur ...

Considering weather in simulating traffic

André-Gilles Dumont, Ashish Bhaskar, Minh Hai Pham, Sofia Samoili

The impact of weather on traffic and its behavior is not well studied in literature primarily due to lack of integrated traffic and weather data. Weather can significant effect the traffic and traffic management measures developed for fine weather might no ...

Heterogeneity In Car-Following Behavior: Theory And Empirics

The aim of this paper is to gain insights into the level of heterogeneity in car-following behavior in real traffic. We use a large sample of trajectory observations collected by means of a helicopter to identify differences between the car-following behav ...

Fatigue load estimation for road bridges using long term WIM monitoring

Eugen Brühwiler, Mark Anthony Treacy

As bridges form the keystone of transport networks, their safe operation with minimal maintenance closures is paramount for efficient operation. Yearly increases in the volume of heavy traffic mean a higher number of fatigue damaging load cycles. The study ...

In-situ dynamic behavior of a railway bridge girder under fatigue causing traffic loading

Eugen Brühwiler, Andrin Herwig

Stresses in bridges due to traffic loading need to be determined as accurately as possible for reliable fatigue safety verification. In particular, the dynamic traffic effect due to running vehicles has to be considered in a realistic way. In-situ measurem ...

The spatial variability of vehicle densities as determinant of urban network capacity

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Seyyed Amin Mazloumian

Due to the complexity of the traffic flow dynamics in urban road networks, most quantitative descriptions of city traffic so far have been based on computer simulations. This contribution pursues a macroscopic (fluid-dynamic) simulation approach, which fac ...

Impact of variations in travel demand and network supply factors for evacuation studies

Traffic simulation models are frequently used to support decisions when planning an evacuation. These models typically focus on traffic dynamics and the effect of traffic control measures in order to locate possible bottlenecks and predict evacuation times ...
