| contents | To date, the prospect of using real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) to study the effects of long-term or 'wear-and-tear' loads, such as exposure to harmful environmental conditions or fatigue, has remained underexplored. This study presents a conceptual framework to assess the impact of long-term degradation on infrastructure systems. The framework integrates the capabilities of RTHS with accelerated degradation techniques to evaluate the behavior of a degrading system over time. Experimental results obtained in this way not only capture the complex interactions but also provide a reliability-based method to determine the expected time-to-failure of the evaluated system. The developed framework is demonstrated using a virtual RTHS platform designed to test fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators. |
