Load Rating versus Reliability Analysis
The most common approach to assess the safety of a bridge is load rating. However, this approach cannot quantify the bridge safety in probabilistic terms or fully quantify the structural risk to the bridge. Reliability methods have become an increasingly popular and gradually accepted approach to assess the safety of structures. These methods account for the randomness and correlation of all re...
متن کاملCalculating bed load transport in steep boulder bed channels
[1] Steep, rough channels occupy a large fraction of the total channel length in mountainous regions. Most sediment mobilized on hillslopes must pass through these streams before reaching lower-gradient channels. Steep channels have wide grain size distributions that are composed of finer, more mobile sediment and large, rarely mobile grains. The large grains can bear a significant portion of t...
متن کاملOrigin of Hysteresis in Bed Form Response to Unsteady Flows
Field and laboratory studies indicate that changes in riverbed morphology often lag changes in water discharge. This lagged response produces hysteresis in the relationship between water discharge and bed form geometry. To understand these phenomena, we performed flume experiments to observe the response of a sand bed to step increases and decreases in water discharge. For an abrupt rise in dis...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics of Hysteresis-Based Load Controls
Direct load control can be achieved by varying the hysteresis band of switchable loads, thereby changing their on/off durations. Such hysteresis-based control methods may, however, display complex dynamics that must be thoroughly understood in order to design safe control mechanisms. This paper explores the dynamical behavior of a group of hysteresis-based PEV chargers. Of interest is the chang...
متن کاملTrend analyses with river sediment rating curves
Sediment rating curves, which are fitted relationships between river discharge (Q) and suspended-sediment concentration (C), are commonly used to assess patterns and trends in river water quality. In many of these studies, it is assumed that rating curves have a power-law form (i.e. C= aQ, where a and b are fitted parameters). Two fundamental questions about the utility of these techniques are ...
