Abstract:Cross-river bridges located in seismically active areas are exposed to two major natural hazards, namely earthquakes and flooding. As the scour depth increases, more parts of the bridge substructure will inevitably be exposed to unfavorable conditions such as chloride ion (Cl−) corrosion. To investigate the seismic performance of highway bridges under the action of scour and Cl− corrosion, a spatial finite element dynamic model of a continuous rigid bridge was established and a Cl−-accelerated electrochemical … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
