    查看更多>>摘要:Automatic modal identification via automatically interpreting the stabilization diagram provides key technique in bridge structural health monitoring.This paper reviews the progress in the area of automatic modal identification based on interpreting the stabili-zation diagram.The whole identification process is divided into four steps from estab-lishing the stabilization diagram to removing the outliers in the identification results.The criteria and algorithms used in each step in the existing studies are carefully summarized and classified.Comparisons between typical methods in cleaning and interpreting the stabilization diagram are also conducted.Real structure benchmarks used in the existing studies to validate the proposed automatic modal identification methods are also sum-marized.Based on the review and comparison,the specific ratio method for cleaning the stabilization diagram,the hierarchical clustering method for interpreting the stabilization diagram and the adjusted boxplot for removing the outliers in the identification results are the most suitable methods for each step.The key point of automatic modal identification based on interpreting the stabilization diagram has also discussed,and it is recommended to pay more attention to cleaning the stabilization diagram.Future study about automatic modal identification under situation with very few sensors deployed should be more concerned.This review aims to help researchers and practitioners in implementing existing automatic modal identification algorithms effectively and developing more suit-able and practical methods for civil engineering structures in the future.

    查看更多>>摘要:Modem suspension bridges exhibit a trend of lighter structures,more diversified structural forms,and longer spans,the latter already exceeding two kilometers.Bridge performance under dead and live loads depends on their structural and main cable systems,while cable-supported bridges especially rely on the design analysis and construction control of the main cable.This literary survey systematically analyzes the research progress and state-of-the-art status quo in the structural systems and design theories of suspension bridges,focusing on the structural systems,main cable shape analyses,live load effect analyses,and emerging lucrative research directions.More than 100 reliable references have been surveyed.(1)Multi-span or multi-main cable schemes appeal to increasing attention,which may become a better choice in terms of structural systems in scenarios with extremely long spans and heavy loads.The cable layouts,such as spatial main cables and hybrid cable-stayed suspension systems have also become feasible approaches for enhancing structural stiffness.(2)The shape-finding analysis during the construction phase is more complex and has more essential factors than that of the completed bridge state.Refined theories combining analytical methods and finite element methods are more suitable for the shape-finding analysis of complex cable systems than any single theory of the two,especially for novel cable systems.(3)The live load effect analysis methods based on traditional deflection theory or modified/improved deflection theories still have wide applications,but the refined theory of treating hangers as discrete members is also constantly developing,which is expected to provide new ideas for more complex structural analysis under the different types of live loads and their distribution forms.

    查看更多>>摘要:Fiber-reinforced polymer(FRP)bars have been increasingly recognized in the field of civil engineering due to their advantages of light weight,high strength and excellent durability.FRP bars can replace steel bars in concrete beams and effectively improve the durability of beams.In this paper,the literature relevant to the short-term mechanical properties of FRP bars and FRP-reinforced concrete beams was reviewed based on previous studies and practical engineering application.Firstly,the mechanical properties of FRP bars were reviewed.Different types of fibers or steel and fibers can be combined to obtain hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer(HFRP)or steel-fiber composite bars(SFCB)with excellent me-chanical performance,respectively.The bond performance and bond-slip model between FRP bars and concrete were discussed.Several common bond-slip models were usually used to study the bond performance between carbon fiber-reinforced polymer(CFRP)bars or glass fiber-reinforced polymer(GFRP)bars and concrete,but changing the type of FRP bars will lead to larger dispersion.Then,the experimental studies,theoretical calculation methods and finite element simulation methods of flexural/shear behavior of FRP-rein-forced concrete beams were presented.Finally,their applications in practical engineering were discussed and the prospects of further research were proposed.It is pointed out that FRP-reinforced ultra-high performance concrete(UHPC)beams,FRP-reinforced geopolymer concrete(GPC)beams,engineered cementitious composites(ECC)-FRP-reinforced concrete beams,prestressed FRP-reinforced concrete beams and steel/FRP hybrid-reinforced con-crete beams can effectively improve the deformation resistance and poor ductility of pure FRP-reinforced concrete beams.

    查看更多>>摘要:The autonomous vehicle(AV)technology has the potential to significantly improve safety and efficiency of the transportation and logistics industry.Full-scale AV testing is limited by time,space,and cost,while simulation-based testing often lacks the necessary accuracy of AV and environmental modeling.In recent years,several initiatives have emerged to test autonomous software and hardware on scaled vehicles.This systematic literature review provides an overview of the literature surrounding small-scale self-driving cars,summarizing the current autonomous platforms deployed and focusing on the software and hardware developments in this field.The studies published in English-language journals or conference papers that pre-sent small-scale testing of self-driving cars were included.Web of Science,Scopus,Springer Link,Wiley,ACM Digital Library,and TRID databases were used for the literature search.The systematic literature search found 38 eligible studies.Research gaps in the reviewed papers were identified to provide guidance for future research.Some key takeaway emerging from this manuscript are:(i)there is a need to improve the models and neural network architectures used in autonomous driving systems,as most papers present only preliminary results;(ii)increasing datasets and sharing databases can help in developing more reliable control pol-icies and reducing bias and variance in the training process;(iii)small-scaled vehicles to ensure safety is a major benefit,and incorporating data about unsafe driving behaviors and infra-structure problems can improve the accuracy of predictive models.

    查看更多>>摘要:Global aging has brought attention to addressing the elderly mobility dilemma,and a commitment to address inclusive transport in aging.Transport inclusion for older adults aims at establishing an age-friendly transport system.As a direct policy goal and pro-moting active aging as an indirect social goal,to help older populations gain access to transport and social opportunities.Based on the analysis of scientific knowledge mapping over the past 30 years,this study visualizes the hotspots and trends in elderly mobility research.Through a qualitative analysis of 138 papers,this paper reviews the theoretical foundations for transport inclusion and three themes of elderly mobility research,pro-poses a framework for public transport(PT)inclusion research as well as future research directions.The study suggests that transport inclusion can help enhance elderly health,social participation,and subjective well-being.It can improve their travel opportunities for active aging in four ways:opportunity accessibility,physical accessibility,age-friendly informationalization,and cost affordability.Future research should pay attention to examining the mechanism of perceived transport inclusion on active aging,expanding the multilevel research space of the capability approach(CA),and exploring the subjective-objective integrated research model for PT inclusion.This research contributes to the overall knowledge of the theoretical and empirical researches on PT inclusion for the elderly and promotes the integrated application of interdisciplinary knowledge in the field.

    查看更多>>摘要:Automated vehicles(AVs)hold the potential to reduce road accidents,mitigate traffic congestion,and improve travel experience.However,the possible countervailing impacts from the changes in underserved populations'vehicle travel demand tend to be over-looked.To determine the vehicle travel demand changes that resulted from underserved populations aged between 6 and 80,this paper explores the latent effect of AVs on vehicle kilometers traveled(VKT)in a fully AV environment using person trip survey data from the cities of Sanya,Shijiazhuang,and Shenzhen in China.This paper uses the natural decline hypothesis of travel demand and proposes a regression model to investigate the difference among the cities'latent vehicle travel demand.Results show that the average VKT of the overall population in Sanya,Shijiazhuang,and Shenzhen increased by 33.4%,47.0%,and 46.8%,respectively.The analysis of the regression model confirms that the current travel behavior of individuals can affect the degree of increase in their average VKT.Integrating AVs into public transport,increasing the acceptance of automated shared mobility options,transforming road space use type,and prototyping AV designs with various features and needs are potential methods to cope with the countervailing impacts.The total VKT of the overall population increased by approximately 10%-25%depending on the city.The con-clusions of this paper provide informative insights into the evaluation of VKT for under-served populations and contribute to the deployment of AVs to address equity and inclusion issues.

    查看更多>>摘要:One of the main factors affecting the safety of signalised intersections is the stop/go behaviour during the yellow interval.Although previous research has exhaustively examined drivers'stop/go decision-making,the expected autonomous vehicles'(AVs')stop/go behaviour has not yet been thoroughly investigated.Through a series of simulation experiments developed for conventional and autonomous vehicles using different car-following,lane-changing,lateral placement and stop/go model parameter values,we examine here whether the default VISSIM stop/go parameter values can adequately replicate the observed drivers'behaviour at the considered intersection and assess the suitability of using the currently available options,albeit referring to human drivers,to simulate the expected stop/go behaviour of AVs.We also propose a policy framework for determining the desired behaviour of AVs in yellow interval,which is integrated into an AVs logic and achieved in the last simulation to explore the effect of automation on the stop/go outcome and,hence,on the safety level of signalised intersections.Several data analysis and modeling techniques were used for the formulation of certain scenarios,including binary choice models.The default stop/go parameter values were found unfit to replicate the observed stop/go behaviour and subjected to calibration.Compared to the currently available options,the proposed AVs logic proved to produce the most accurate results,in terms of the stop/go simulation outcome.Regarding the impact of automation on the stop/go outcome,the simulation experiments showed that AVs preferred a more conservative behaviour in favor of road safety,as indicated by the significant reduction(≈15%)in the number of vehicles crossing the stop line during the yellow light and zero instances of red light violation.However,compared to the conservative drivers represented by the default stop/go parameter values,AVs preferred a more rational behaviour in favor of intersection capacity without compromising road safety.
