  • Publication number: 20250129556
    Abstract: A method for rapid and safe construction and intelligent monitoring and controlling of continuous arch bridges, which using a single-arch rib construction method, when installing a new arch rib segment, the clasp cable is immediately extended, and then using an intelligent control cable to ensure that the pier and anchorage tower are in a balanced state. The newly installed segment is no longer in a cantilever state, and the loading on the flange is very small, resulting in a small change in the tension force for the clasp cables of the previous segments. The present invention saves more than half of the clasp cable usage, reduces the number of transverse movements of the cable crane system, and significantly shortens the construction period. The construction method which using intelligent control cables to balance the unbalance loading on the middle pier, could be applied to the construction of continuous arch bridges.

  • Patent number: 12175871
    Abstract: A computer system can determine historical interval data of a freight operator from completed freight service requests associated with the freight operator. Additionally, while the freight operator is fulfilling a current freight service request, the computer system can determine at least a first likely downtime interval for a non-operating activity of the freight operator prior to the freight operator arriving at a pickup location or a destination location of the current freight service request, based on the historical interval data. Also, the computer system can determine an estimated arrival time for the freight operator to arrive at the pickup location or the destination location of the current freight service request, based at least in part on the first likely down time interval. Moreover, the computer system can update a record associated with the freight operator to reflect the estimated arrival time.
