Description
Summary:In order to establish a rational bridge management program, it is necessary to develop a cost-effective decision-support system for the maintenance of bridges. In this paper, an attempt is made to develop a bridge management system that can provide practical maintenance plans by using an improved multi-objective genetic algorithm. A group of bridges is analyzed to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed method.
