Reliability of Selected Critical Infrastructure Elements
Journal Title: International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper brings an overview of aspect of reliability of selected critical infrastructure elements. Firstly critical infrastructure elements are defined. Extreme loading of such elements and the normative standards are mentioned. The paper brings an overview about a current research connected with critical infrastructure element protection and in conclusions defines new challenges for the research in the problem.

Nonlinear Analysis of RC Box Culverts Resting on a Linear Elastic Soil
In the analyses presented, the soil-structure interaction is accounted for by means of a FE-BIE approach, in which the structure is modelled with displacement-based beam finite elements, whereas the boundary between stru...
Vulnerability and Protection of Glass Windows and Facades under Blast: Experiments, Methods and Current Trends
Glass has been overwhelmingly used for windows and facades for modern constructions. Nevertheless, due to its relatively low tensile strength and mostly brittle behaviour, compared to other structural members, glass wind...
