(CRC Press, 2012-07-08)This paper considers the problem of assessing traffic loading on road bridges. A database of European WIM data is used to determine accurate annual maximum distributions of load effect. These in turn are used to find the ...

(CRC Press, 2012-07-08)This paper summarises the developments in the dynamic response of bridges to traffic loading based on a large amount of simulations and field tests carried out within the 6th EU framework ARCHES (2006-2009). When assessing ...

(Taylor & Francis, 2012-06-08)The traffic loading of long-span bridges is governed by congestion. Real-world observations show that congestion can take up different forms. Nevertheless, most previous studies on bridge traffic loading considered only a ...

(Springer, 2010-01)Simple limit equilibrium analyses can be performed to determine the Factor of Safety (FOS) against slope failure of unsaturated soil slopes. However, many of the input parameters needed for these analyses are highly variable, ...

(CRC Press, 2012-07-08)Maximum loading on long-span bridges typically occurs in congested traffic conditions. As traffic becomes congested car drivers may change lane, increasing the tendency for trucks to travel in platoons. For long-span ...

(CRC Press, 2010)Accurate traffic loading models based on measured data are essential for the accurate assessment of existing bridges. There are well-established methods for the Monte Carlo simulation of single lanes of traffic, and this ...

(IRFU, 2012-05-17)Elite rugby union teams currently employ technology in order to monitor and evaluate the physical demands of training and games on their players. Tackling has been shown to be the most common cause of injury in rugby union ...

(University College Dublin; School of EconomicsUCD Geary Institute, 2007-08)The non take-up of social assistance benefits due to claim costs may seriously limit the anti-poverty effect of these programs. Yet, available evidence is fragmented and mostly relies on interview-based data, potentially ...

(Elsevier, 2009-12-17)A major challenge in oral drug delivery is the development of novel dosage forms to promote absorption of poorly permeable Class III drugs across the intestinal epithelium. To date, no absorption promoter has been approved ...
