Structural Reliability

Members of the structures research group are focused on the following topics in relation to structural reliability:

•  Seismic reliability of bridges employing to different retrofit techniques
• Reliability of structures in marine environments
• Safety assessment of offshore structures
• Development of maintenance management methodologies for optimisation of budgets on bridge networks
• Safety implications of using high performance materials in repair
• Plasticity based response models in safety assessment of RC deck slabs
• Influence of statistical uncertainty on system reliability
• Reliability of railway structures
