A significant share of bridge structures in many countries has exceeded their design service life, leading to increased accident rates and financial burdens. Major degradation factors include reinforcement corrosion, concrete carbonation, fatigue damage, and aggressive environmental exposure. This paper analyses global statistical data, reviews major bridge collapse cases, and presents modern diagnostic and service life extension methods, including structural health monitoring systems, digital twin technology, non-destructive testing, and the use of innovative materials.

However, their long-term integrity is compromised by a range of deterioration processes that can lead to significant structural and functional failures. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the primary failure mechanisms affecting RC bridges. We analyze the physical basis, contributing environmental factors, and structural consequences of key mechanisms, including reinforcement corrosion, freeze-thaw damage, chemical attacks, mechanical overloading, fatigue, and foundation scour. The article also examines the phenomenon of progressive collapse, a catastrophic failure mode where the failure of one component triggers a chain reaction of failures. To address these challenges, the study discusses both traditional and advanced strategies for mitigating deterioration. We highlight the importance of preventive maintenance programs and explore the application of modern monitoring technologies, such as Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), in detecting early signs of distress. The conclusion emphasizes a shift from reactive repairs to a proactive, predictive maintenance paradigm, leveraging modern diagnostics and innovative materials to extend the service life of RC bridges, enhance their safety, and improve their resilience to environmental and operational stressors [1].

By analyzing citations as evolving connections between works, authors, and institutions, the study highlights how these networks reveal the intellectual structure of science, the diffusion of ideas, and the cumulative processes of knowledge production. The discussion emphasizes the unequal distribution of influence, where a small number of publications serve as central anchors, while many remain peripheral. Factors such as cognitive relevance, social visibility, institutional prestige, and temporal recognition contribute to shaping citation trajectories. The article also explores methodological approaches to studying citation networks, including graph theory, centrality measures, clustering techniques, and computational models. It further considers the implications of interdisciplinarity, globalization, and digital communication for the transformation of citation patterns. While citation metrics provide valuable insights, their limitations and potential distortions necessitate cautious interpretation, especially in research evaluation and science policy. The conclusion underscores the importance of integrating quantitative indicators with qualitative perspectives to achieve a nuanced understanding of scholarly influence in a rapidly evolving scientific landscape.

Hemp fiber is very strong and resistant to continuous use, which allows it to be used in the production of various products, such as fabrics, threads, and paper. Several varieties of hemp are also being grown and experiments are being conducted in our republic.

Drawing on the evolution of scientometrics from early citation analysis to advanced computational methods, the discussion highlights how indicators provide insights into the structure of knowledge production, the flow of ideas, and the translation of research into innovation. The analysis emphasizes the dual function of scientometric indicators in assessing both productivity, measured through publication and citation outputs, and innovation, reflected in interdisciplinary connections, knowledge transfer, and societal impact. The article also examines the limitations of relying solely on quantitative indicators, including disciplinary differences, methodological biases, and unintended behavioral consequences. By considering the integration of bibliometric data with patents, funding records, and alternative metrics, it argues for a balanced approach that combines quantitative measures with qualitative evaluations. The conclusion underscores the necessity of responsible and contextualized use of scientometric indicators to guide research policy, institutional strategy, and global collaboration in advancing innovation.
