System dynamics approach for bridge deterioration monitoring system Universiteit Gent
Bridge monitoring plays an important role in reducing catastrophic failure. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has been performed on one of the bridge components such as decks, girders, abutments/piers independently. However, the failure can be attributed either a component defect or combination among them. Bridge deterioration model requires the analysis of complex and dynamic variables. The system dynamic (SD) is a powerful simulation method ...
