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
