Abstract This project develops a methodology and tools for a risk-based multi-threat decision-support tool for long-term bridge asset management (BAM), with a particular focus on chronic aging-induced condition deterioration, and more abrupt and extreme seismic hazard impact. Specifically, a stochastic bridge condition deterioration and seismic damage simulation module is developed. Bridge condition deterioration is modeled through Markovian state transition dynamics considering different maintenance actions, using multiple information sources such as the National Bridge Inventory (NBI) bridge condition database and the FHWA Bridge Preservation Guide. Seismic fragility modeling and risk assessment is carried out, considering site-specific seismic hazard and the effect of seismic retrofitting actions. A life cycle cost analysis module is introduced to holistically quantify and aggregate the direct and indirect costs incurred from bridge condition deterioration, seismic damage, and intervention actions over a prolonged planning horizon. Benefit-cost analysis for various seismic retrofitting actions is also performed. Finally, by integrating the above bridge deterioration and seismic damage simulation module and the life-cycle cost analysis module with the advanced AI technique, deep reinforcement learning (DRL), a methodology for generating AI-based policies for sequential maintenance decision support for a portfolio of bridges is proposed. Departing from traditional reactive condition-based decision policies, these AI-based policies can offer much more proactive and adaptive decisions to minimize the expected long-term life-cycle costs. Owing to the parametrized DRL formulation, the AI-based policies can flexibly accommodate the decision needs from different individual bridges within a bridge portfolio in near real time. Practical action constraints are also introduced to align with real-world engineering practices. The proposed AI-based policies are evaluated based on individual bridges as well as on a portfolio of bridges, and demonstrate superior performance in reducing the life-cycle costs compared with other condition-based policies. In addition, the AI-based policies also exhibit robustness to potential human override. Finally, an investigation into the effect of seismic retrofitting, when coupled with AI-based agents, is conducted for more comprehensive life-cycle benefit-cost evaluation of seismic retrofit actions.

Design Concept

Visual Composition:

A sleek and professional light blue background with a transition of subtle gradients to give a modern and technical appeal. A central abstract illustration featuring a futuristic steel bridge structure intertwined with neural AI network patterns, visually representing the fusion of real-world engineering and artificial intelligence. Small, scattered seismic waveforms overlay the background with faint, clean gridlines symbolizing precision and data analysis. The lower portion introduces a subtle rippling water effect to hint at environmental factors tied to bridges.

Design Typography:

Title in bold, geometric sans-serif font ("Eurostile" or "Futura"), stacked in a well-balanced layout for clarity and emphasis. The subtitle is placed below in a clean, condensed sans-serif typeface, slightly smaller but maintaining readability. The authors' names are set at the bottom in a sleek, all-caps font (like "Lato" or "Roboto") with letter-spacing for sophistication.

Design Layout:

The book title wraps the upper third, aligned slightly to the left. The abstract bridge illustration occupies the middle of the layout, balancing the dimensions gracefully. The AI neural pattern integrates smoothly around the central image, connecting toward seismic waveforms subtly framing the edges. The authors' names are organized neatly in the lower portion, floating above the rippling water illustration with distinct spacing.

Rationale Behind the Design:

This cover design effectively combines the scientific and technological themes of the book by merging the realistic imagery of bridge infrastructure with the futuristic feel of neural AI patterns and seismic analytics. Light blue as the primary color conveys trust, clarity, and engineering precision. The abstract layout visually organizes the complexity of various topics into a clear and elevated design, focusing on bridge management and artificial intelligence. The typefaces balance modernity with readability, essential for such technical content. Finally, the choice of materials with tactile enhancements like embossing and spot UV adds dimension and elevates the overall quality, ensuring the book stands out in both print and digital formats.
