The rapid increase in traffic volume and heavy vehicle loads is causing accelerated deterioration of pavement infrastructure worldwide. This research investigates the impact of overweight and dynamic axle loads on pavement performance, employing advanced weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems and machine learning...

Due to the current limitations on seismic forecasting, there is a high chance that a considerable number of vehicles would remain on a bridge when an earthquake occurs. In traditional seismic analyses, traffic loads were often ignored. Existing mode-based bridge-traffic interaction analysis usually cannot...

Long-span bridges support a large amount of traffic every day. Even when an earthquake strikes, a long-span bridge often still has many vehicles present due to the low predictability of earthquake events. To study the seismic performance of bridge and traffic systems, a new full-response prediction methodology...
