These scour critical bridges are particularly vulnerable during extreme flood events, and pose a major risk to human life, transportation infrastructure, and economic sustainability. Retrofitting the thousands of undersized and scour critical bridges to more rigorous standards is prohibitively expensive requiring effective yet economical countermeasures. This research tested the efficacy of using approach embankments as intentional sacrificial “fuses” to protect the bridge integrity and minimize damage during large flow events by allowing the streams to access their natural floodplain and reduce channel velocities. This countermeasure concept was evaluated using the Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System models. Steady flow models were developed for three specific bridges on two river reaches. Streamflow return period estimators for both river reaches were developed using Bayesian analysis and available United States Geological Survey stream gauge data to evaluate sacrificial embankments under non-stationary climatic conditions. The use of sacrificial embankments was determined to be a cost-effective scour mitigation strategy for bridges with suboptimal hydraulic capacity and unknown or shallow foundations. Additional benefits of sacrificial embankments include reductions in upstream flood stage and velocity.","Brand, Matthew W.; Dewoolkar, Mandar M.; Rizzo, Donna M.",10.1007/s11069-017-2829-z,"July 01",1573-0840,3,"Natural Hazards",1469-1487,"Use of sacrificial embankments to minimize bridge damage from scour during extreme flow events","journal article",87,2017,24537,23149bfe-1fe5-47d6-8dd3-877f8d7a5150,"Journal Article",/article/10.1007/s11069-017-2829-z

Although considerable evidence indicates that the climate is changing, significant uncertainty exists regarding the location, timing, and magnitude of this change over the lifetime of infrastructure. Practicing engineers are faced with the dilemma of balancing future needs for engineered infrastructure with the risks posed by the effects of climate change on long-term engineering projects. The gap between climate science and engineering practice somehow must be bridged. This report identifies the technical requirements and civil engineering challenges raised by adaptation to a changing climate. Topics include: review of climate science for engineering practice; incorporating climate science into engineering practice; civil engineering sectors that might be affected by climate change; needs for research, development, and demonstration projects; and summary, conclusions, and recommendations. Three appendixes illustrate different engineering approaches to assessing or preparing for climate change. Practitioners, researchers, educators, and students of civil engineering, as well as government officials and allied professionals, will be fascinated by this discussion of the trade-offs between the expenses of increasing system reliability and the potential costs and consequences of failure to future generations.",,10.1061/9780784479193,,,,,93,"Adapting Infrastructure and Civil Engineering Practice to a Changing Climate",,,2015,24558,31bf15ab-c374-4466-8b4c-894a527813cb,"Edited Report",/report/adapting-infrastructure-civil-engineering-practice-changing-climate

Degree of effect on these activities was studied on a rain day versus non-rain day basis and further on a land use basis to help infer changes in impacts due to urban-influenced increases in rain occurrences, rainfall amounts and storm activity. Added rain resulted in over 100% more vehicle accidents, particularly in the urban area, but the accident severity associated with rain was greater in the rural areas. Rainfall decreased ridership of mass transit systems by 3–5% and apparently this was disproportionately due to midday discretionary riders such as shoppers. Little relationship of rain to pleasure boat emergencies was found but more rain decreased usage of pleasure boats. The number of delays in flight departures from O'Hare Airport was highly related to rain, increasing from only 0.3% of all flights delayed on non-rain days to 18.2&percnt delayed on heavy (≥1.3 cm) rain days. The percentage of the total electrical power outage time which was due to storms varied greatly by power district, ranging from 33% to over 80%. In general, downtown Chicago experienced less time without power due to storms, than did suburban areas. Telephone service was unaffected by rain conditions in Chicago but usage was increased. The results of these selected impacts indicate that an urban-related increase in summer rainfall will lead to certain undesirable impacts on those traveling, particularly by auto or air.","Bertness, Jan",10.1175/1520-0450(1980)019<0545:Rriost>2.0.CO;2,,,5,"Journal of Applied Meteorology",545-556,"Rain-Related Impacts on Selected Transportation Activities and Utility Services in the Chicago Area",,19,1980,26019,33152544-f4b0-494a-99c9-8319338ca09d,"Journal Article",/article/10.1175/1520-0450(1980)019%3C0545:Rriost%3E2.0.CO;2

Seaports are likely to be affected directly and indirectly by climatic changes, with broader implications for international trade and development. Due to their coastal location, seaports are particularly vulnerable to extreme weather events associated with increasing sea levels and tropical storm activity, as illustrated by hurricane “Sandy”. In view of their strategic role as part of the globalized trading system, adapting ports in different parts of the world to the impacts of climate change is of considerable importance. Reflecting the views of a diverse group of stakeholders with expertise in climate science, engineering, economics, policy, and port management, this essay highlights the climate change challenge for ports and suggests a way forward through the adoption of some initial measures. These include both “soft” and “hard” adaptations that may be spearheaded by individual port entities, but will require collaboration and support from a broad range of public and private sector stakeholders and from society at large. In particular, the essay highlights a need to shift to more holistic planning, investment and operation.","Becker, Austin H.; Acciaro, Michele; Asariotis, Regina; Cabrera, Edgard; Cretegny, Laurent; Crist, Philippe; Esteban, Miguel; Mather, Andrew; Messner, Steve; Naruse, Susumu; Ng, Adolf K.

Applying conventional four-step travel demand modeling techniques, the study simulates traffic outcomes in three TOD scenarios in the Austin, Texas, area, where a commuter rail line is under construction and TOD proposals are being developed. With TOD, the portion of congested roadway in the Austin region is estimated to decrease by nearly 770 lane miles. Daily vehicle miles traveled (VMT) are reduced by 10 to 12 million in the region, or by 3.5 to 4.5 person miles traveled (PMT) per person. This magnitude of congestion relief for peak-hour commuting indicates a potentially significant amount of savings in highway investments through TOD practice. No major modal shifts from driving to transit or non-motorized modes occur in the TOD scenario. Still, PMT for transit is estimated to grow significantly. TOD's role as a congestion relief strategy largely lies in the concentrated development that shortens average trip length and hence generates less VMT and PMT than low-density sprawl. The study results also reveal challenges facing TOD practice: the non-TOD area benefits more than the TOD area, although TOD improves congestion regionwide. Traffic conditions in the TOD area may actually worsen due to the TOD-based concentration of people and jobs. Promoting walking or biking to minimize local driving is thus critical for TOD to succeed.","Zhang, Ming",10.3141/2174-19,,,,"Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board",148-155,"Can transit-oriented development reduce peak-hour congestion?",,2174,2010,26041,3ce3b0b8-3b02-4df5-9dd7-47a6f23cfa4b,"Journal Article",/article/10.3141/2174-19
