Reliability analysis of welded stud shear connectors on simply-supported bridge girders

This paper examines the reliability of welded stud shear connectors for steel-concrete composite bridge girders. A finite element model of a simply-supported bridge was created featuring link connector elements representing the shear studs between beam and ...

Small-scale organic Rankine cycle turbo-generator for waste heat recovery on truck engine

Kévin Rosset

Truck engine waste heat recovery (WHR) systems have been investigated for many years. Among them, organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. Proposed expanders are of ...

Carbon Dioxide Capture From Internal Combustion Engine Exhaust Using Temperature Swing Adsorption

François Maréchal, Shivom Sharma

In order to reduce the CO2 emissions in the transportation sector, one can electrify the vehicle, switch to biofuel, or capture and store CO2 on board. In this study, integration of an on board CO2 capture and storage unit with an internal combustion engin ...

CFRP Strengthening and Long-Term Monitoring of an Old Metallic Roadway Bridge in Melbourne

Ardalan Hosseini, Masoud Motavalli, Elyas Ghafoori

This study gives an overview on carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strengthening and wireless sensor network (WSN) monitoring of a 121-year-old metallic roadway bridge in Melbourne, Australia. A flat prestressed unbonded retrofit (FPUR) system was deve ...

Addressing the need to monitor concrete fatigue with Non Destructive Testing: results of Infrastar European project

Eugen Brühwiler, Imane Bayane, Antoine Bassil, Xiao Wang

Fatigue is one of the most prevalent issues, which directly influences the service life expectancy of concrete structures. Fatigue has been investigated for years for steel structures. However, recent findings suggest that concrete structures may also be s ...

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 ...

SeMiTri: A Framework for Semantic Annotation of Heterogeneous Trajectories

Karl Aberer, Stefano Spaccapietra, Christine Parent, Zhixian Yan, Dipanjan Chakraborty

GPS devices allow recording the movement track of the moving object they are attached to. This data typically consists of a stream of spatio-temporal (x,y,t) points. For application purposes the stream is transformed into finite subsequences called {\em tr ...

Dynamic amplification of traffic loads on road bridges

Eugen Brühwiler, Hannes Ludescher

Today all major standards implicitly or explicitly include an “impact factor”, “dynamic amplification factor” (DAF) or “dynamic load allowance”. The amount of dynamic traffic action represented by the factor varies considerably [6, 7]. The values are usual ...
