Planners and policymakers rely on data and models to support infrastructure, operational, and other decisions. Attitudinal data, and models that use these data, provide insights into passenger travel behavior that cannot be easily explained by other types of data. However, collecting and using attitudinal data in transportation models has many chal

Steel girder ends are susceptible to corrosion damage due to deicing salts, water, and other contaminants leaking from failed expansion joints. When corrosion becomes significant, it leads to a reduction in the sectional properties of steel girders and consequently reduces bearing and shear resistance. Conventional repair methods, although effectiv
