A parametric study of optimum road frame bridges by threshold acceptance

Perea de Dios, Cristian; Yepes, V.; Alcalá González, Julián; Hospitaler Pérez, Antonio; González Vidosa, Fernando; PEREA DE (NISCAIR, 2010)

[EN] This paper examines the economic optimization of reinforced concrete road frame bridges by threshold acceptance. The formulation of the problem includes 50 discrete variables: three geometrical ones, three types of ...
A parametric study of optimum tall piers for railway bridge viaducts

Martínez Martín, Francisco Joaquín; González Vidosa, Fernando; Hospitaler Pérez, Antonio; Yepes, V. (TECHNO-PRESS, 2013-03)

[EN] This paper presents a parametric study of reinforced concrete bridge tall piers with hollow, rectangular sections. Such piers are typically used in railway construction of prestressed concrete viaducts.Twenty one ...
A proposal of design fire curves for I-girder bridges. Application to an overpass on U.S. Route 1 in Trenton, New Jersey, USA

Howard, Jethro David (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2019-10-17)

[EN] The importance of bridges within national transportation systems is unquantifiable, given the socioeconomical impact that just one single structure can have on its surrounding area. As such, a bridges design is heavily ...
A review of modelling and optimisation methods applied to railways energy consumption

Martínez Fernández, P.; Villalba Sanchis, Ignacio; Yepes, V.; Insa Franco, Ricardo (Elsevier, 2019)

[EN] Railways are a rather efficient transport mean, and yet there is increasing interest in reducing their energy consumption and making them more sustainable in the current context of climate change. Many studies try to ...
A Review of Multi-Criteria Assessment of the Social Sustainability of Infrastructures

Sierra-Varela, Leonardo Andres; Yepes, V.; Pellicer, Eugenio (Elsevier, 2018-06)

[EN] Nowadays multi-criteria methods enable non-monetary aspects to be incorporated into the assessment of infrastructure sustainability. Yet evaluation of the social aspects is still neglected and the multi-criteria ...
