Scholarship Description
Two PhD scholarships are being funded by a research project, which aims to develop a reliable bridge deterioration model by employing Artificial Intelligence (AI) based techniques, i.e. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Case-based Reasoning (CBR), which utilise usable historical bridge condition ratings and computer generated scenarios. The outcome of this project will help bridge authorities to effectively plan maintenance strategies for obtaining the maximum benefit with limited funds, and contribute to the establishment of reliable long-term bridge maintenance strategies for any given bridge network. Applicants should provide their Curriculum Vitae, academic record, an outline of their career interests, and the names and contact details of three academic referees.
