Reliability Analysis of Two-dimensional Series Portal-framed Bridge System Based on Mixed Copula Functions Yuefei Liua, Dagang Lub School of Civil Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China, 150090 aluiyuefei@126.com, bludagang@hit.edu.cn (corresponding author) Keywords: Failure modes, Correlation analysis, Two-dimensional series portal-framed bridge system, Mixed copula functions, Bayesian copula selection, Reliability analysis Abstract: In this paper, several commonly-used Elliptical copulas and Archimedean copulas were introduced, and their application in the correlation analysis were also described in detal.
More recently, the copula theory has been primarily used in Mechanical engineering [3] and Hydraulic engineering [4], but little used in Bridge engineering.

In china there have been many research and engineering application in recent years [7,8,9], and people also research and development a set of technology and products on the key technology of sewage thermal-energy resources application [10,11].
Types of urban sewage thermal-energy resources utilization planning The foundations of urban sewage thermal-energy resources utilization plan are the urban drainage planning and the urban comprehensive planning, so it must rely on the urban drainage engineering planning and subject to the urban comprehensive planning.
The detailed planning also develop corresponding engineering application scheme and implementing measures, determine site position, area, application type, capacity and buildings of the sewage utilization, and then guide the design, construction and operation of sewage-source heat pump projects.
The overall goals, the adjustment of district and detailed engineering application scheme form an organic unity.
Content 1 and 2 should be completed in comprehensive planning; district planning mainly completes content 3, and puts forward adjustment and improvement suggestions on comprehensive planning; detailed planning mainly completes content 4 and 5, and finally forms document to control and guide engineering construction.
