Integrated Bridge Management System Based on Life Cycle Cost Concept
Publication: Structures 2001: A Structural Engineering Odyssey
Abstract
In this paper, an attempt is made to develop an integrated maintenance system that can treat various members and elements in a total and practical way by introducing the concept of life cycle cost and using genetic algorithms. In order to improve the convergence and reduce the computation time, a virus evolutionary genetic algorithm is introduced, which is based on the theory of virus evolution. Several numerical examples are presented to illustrate the calculation procedure and to demonstrate the efficiency of the method proposed here.
