What is it about?

Concrete bridges deteriorate with time. Models are needed to forecast the future conditions and plan appropriate measures. Available deterioration models include Markov chain, regression based and artificial intelligence. Markov chains model is typically used in practice. The paper proposes the D-S theory to compliment the markov chains model

Perspectives

The paper is about the D-S theory and its application in assessing the chance of deterioration. Its importance lues in the ability to incorporate expert inputs and to update the analysis once more evidence become available.
