Characteristic vertical response of a footbridge due to crowd loading.
(EuroDyn, 2011-07)
The characteristic vertical vibration of a flexible footbridge subject to crowd loading is examined in this paper.
Typically, bridge vibrations produced from a crowd of pedestrians are estimated by using an enhancement ...
The effect of clusters within crowds of pedestrians on the vertical response of a flexible footbridge.
(BCRI, 2012-09)
The issue of excessive vibrations of footbridges due to the passage of pedestrians has been well documented in the
past decade. Despite this there still remains great uncertainty as to how to predict the acceleration ...
The impact foot landing position (FLP) has on the simulation of medio-lateral pedestrian loading.
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
The issue of Medial-lateral loading from pedestrians has received increased attention from bridge designers and researchers since the London Millennium Bridge incidence 12 years ago where the bridge vibrated excessively ...
A flow based architecture for efficient distribution of vehicular information in smart cities
(IEEE, 2019-10-22)
The Introduction of the Internet of Things has made the
vision of “Smart Cities” a very reachable goal. Aggregating data
from a wealth of sensors throughout a city, with the aim of
improving quality of life for its ...
Evaluation of corrosion-resistant basalt-fiber-reinforced polymer bars and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer grid reinforcement to replace steel in precast concrete underground utility vaults.
(Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, 2016-09)
Underground utility vaults are widely used to house
utilities and are conventionally designed using steel
reinforcement. These structures are often designed
with thicker cover concrete in an attempt to prevent the
corrosion ...
Nonlinear finite element of FRP reinforced concrete structures.
(BCRI, 2012-09)
reinforcement is a non-corrosive alternative to steel and is gaining popularity for use in reinforced concrete
structures exposed to corrosive environments. A major difference between the two reinforcing materials is their ...
Polarimetry and spectroscopy of the 'oxygen flaring' DQ Herculis-like nova: V5668 Sagittarii (2015).
(EDP Sciences, 2018-09-05)
Context. Classical novae are eruptions on the surface of a white dwarf in a binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric shell of gas and dust around the system. The ...
Identification of damage in steel beams using frequency response changes.
(AJBAS, 2013)
The issue of structural condition monitoring is becoming increasingly important as the Ireland’s and the world’s civil engineering infrastructure ages. An efficient monitoring process is essential as part of a modern ...
Design, construction and dynamic analysis of a laboratory-scale FRP composite footbridge.
(Technische Universität Berlin, 2017-09)
Pedestrian loading on flexible structures such as footbridges, grandstands and lightweight floors is an area,
which is receiving significant attention from the research community of late. Of particular interest is ...
Engineering education research methods to determine conceptions of engineers and of engineering.
(EERN, 2019-05)
Engineering education research has been categorised into the five research areas of ‘engineering epistemologies’, ‘engineering learning mechanisms’, ‘engineering learning systems’, engineering diversity and inclusiveness’, ...
