De ce podurile, fie ele rutiere sau feroviare, încă nu sunt infrastructura de transport promisă, la calitatea şi nivelul tehnic pe care le vedem în afară şi pe care şi România le merită?
Since 2021, the OID sponsored programme ESREI – European sustainable real estate initiative – analyses how different countries manage ESG issues in the real estate sector. The subject of adaptation is covered by the OID’s publication, and the way each European country incorporate the challenge in their national regulations has been addressed in an article in March 2023. This time, the OID focuses on European and national strategies or regulations addressing the water-related natural hazards in Europe.
At the beginning of 2022, the European Central Bank assessed the climate resilience of 104 banks in the eurozone. What implications can this study have for the European real estate sector?
Insights from the Field: Newcastle Pilgrim's Quarter Structural Health Monitoring Project
During this webinar we will go into the details of a highly requested topic.
Adtran has joined the EU-funded Software enabled Fiber optic multisensing Network (SoFiN) project. The initiative aims to create a flexible platform for fibre-based sensing applications in critical infrastructure. Involving a consortium of eight partners from Germany, Denmark, Cyprus and Estonia, the four-year project will harness cloud connectivity and AI to improve monitoring of fibre-optic and power distribution networks as well as to reduce leakage in water supply systems.
Testele de rezistență pentru Podul peste Dunăre de la Brăila au început de luni, anunță ministerul Transporturilor. Testele statice și dinamice vor dura câteva zile, iar deschiderea circulației pe pod și pe primii kilometri de drum va avea loc în jurul datei de 27 iunie.
Structural monitoring (or structural health monitoring) is an essential part of modern urban infrastructure. As the name suggests, it involves closely monitoring the performance of the structures that constitute modern towns and cities, especially those which may be vulnerable to processes like erosion, subsidence or other forms of decay.
How global warming is impacting existing infrastructures and what we can do about it?
Global warming can be defined as the rise of the average global temperature. Over the last three decades we have witnessed a constant increase in the global temperature of land and ocean which has caused changes in atmospheric moisture and rainfall.
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is the process of using damage detection and characterization techniques for critical structures like bridges, wind turbines, and tunnels. It is a non-destructive in-situ structural evaluation method that employs several types of sensors embedded or attached to the structure.
Structural control and health monitoring as condition monitoring are some essential areas that allow for different system parameters to be designed, supervised, controlled, and evaluated during the system’s operation in different processes, such as those used in machinery, structures, and different physical variables in mechanical, chemical, electrical, aeronautical, civil, electronics, mechatronics, and agricultural engineering applications, among others.
Certitudinea exploatarii in siguranta a constructiilor hidrotehnice poate fi obtinuta printr-o urmarire sistematica in timp a deplasarilor si deformatiilor acestora sau a elementelor componente ale constructiei. Analiza deplasarilor si deformatiilor are ca scop furnizarea informatiilor privind starea de stabilitate a constructiei, sau, din contra, modificarile aparute asupra obiectivului de urmarit.
Some of the most important foundation elements of a bridge are its least visible – the abutments, piers, piles, and footings submerged under the waterline. Regular inspection, both above and below the waterline, helps to keep aging structures solid and stable.
