Kolawole Abejide; Jubril Kaurra Mohammed; A. Lawan; Olugbenga Samuel Abejide

Volume 1, Issue 2 , December 2019, Pages 33-45

https://doi.org/10.22115/rer.2020.184809.1011

Abstract
  This study presents the structural reliability of rolled steel beams on offshore platforms exposed to corrosion during their design period and beyond. The rate of corrosion of the rolled steel beam was determined using a standard expression for extreme marine environment. Limit equations were used to ...  Read More

Abstract
  Safety of critical industrial facilities such as Nuclear power plants has gained significant attention against external events in the last decade. Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station disaster occurred due to flooding of the plant which was caused by the Great East Japan earthquake and the subsequent ...  Read More

Uncertainties Evaluation of Loads and Loading Conditions
Reliability Assessment of a Bridge with an Orthotropic Deck Subjected to Extreme Traffic Events

Franziska Schmidt; Marcel Nowak; Mariia Nesterova; Oliver Fischer

Volume 1, Issue 2 , December 2019, Pages 67-76

https://doi.org/10.22115/rer.2020.216878.1019

Abstract
  When dealing with the construction of a bridge or the assessment of an existing bridge to traffic loads, one important point is the prediction of reliability levels for critical details to the expected traffic loads in its remaining lifetime: this is done here for details of a steel-orthotropic bridge ...  Read More
