Fire hazard in transportation infrastructure: Review, assessment, and mitigation strategies

Venkatesh KODUR, M. Z. NASER

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2021, Volume 15, Issue 1,   Pages 46-60 doi: 10.1007/s11709-020-0676-6

Abstract: This paper reviews the fire problem in critical transportation infrastructures such as bridges and tunnels. The magnitude of the fire problem is illustrated, and the recent increase in fire problems in bridges and tunnels is highlighted. Recent research undertaken to address fire problems in transportation structures is reviewed, as well as critical factors governing the performance of those structures. Furthermore, key strategies recommended for mitigating fire hazards in bridges and tunnels are presented, and their applicability to practical situations is demonstrated through a practical case study. Furthermore, research needs and emerging trends for enhancing the “state-of-the-art” in this area are discussed.

Bending failure performance of a shield tunnel segment based on full-scale test and numerical analysis

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering   Pages 1033-1046 doi: 10.1007/s11709-023-0973-y

Abstract: This study focuses on the bending failure performance of a shield tunnel segment.A full-scale test was conducted to investigate deformation and failure characteristics.During the loading, the bending failure process can be divided into four stages: the elastic stage, workingstage with cracks, failure stage, and ultimate stage.The characteristic loads between contiguous stages are the cracking, failure, and ultimate loads.
