Model Updating of Bridges Using Measured Influence Lines

Applied Sciences
In developing a digital twin of a real structure, finite element model updating (FEMU) is essential for refining the model’s response based on measured data, enabling the detection of structural damage or hidden reserves over time.

B‐WIM System Development for a Railway Bridge based on simulated data

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2971-2976, September 2026.
Abstract Bridge Weigh‐In‐Motion (B‐WIM) technology can estimate axle loads and traffic parameters directly from structural responses, making it a valuable tool for structural health monitoring (SHM). Although there are developing benchmarks for road bridges, its application to railway bridges is limited due to unique challenges.

Advanced Dental Composite Technology via Bisilanized Dual‐Action Nanofillers for Biofilm Control

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 36, 29 June 2026.
A multimodal research strategy has led to the development of an innovative resin‐based composite (RBC) with dual antibacterial action. The S_CM‐RBC formula showed strong antibiofilm activity, excellent mechanical strength, and biosafety. It effectively controlled oral bacteria in prevention of caries recurrence, and maintained pulp health in a rat ...

High‐Precision Data Fusion for Multisensor Weigh‐in‐Motion Using an Adaptive Backpropagation Neural Network

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To achieve higher data fusion accuracy of backpropagation neural networks (BPNN) in multisensor weigh‐in‐motion (MS‐WIM), this study proposes a novel algorithm termed adaptive adjustment of bias for backpropagation neural networks (AAB‐BPNN). The AAB‐BPNN can dynamically adjust the output layer biases during the testing phase by calculating the ...

Probabilistic Prediction of Bridge Deflection Using Transformer‐Based Deep Learning and Monitoring Data

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Accurate bridge deflection prediction is vital for structural health monitoring. Compared with traditional methods, it can more effectively uncover complex nonlinear laws from massive monitoring data to achieve forward‐looking prediction. Although the current mainstream models have significant advantages in modeling capabilities, they still face the ...

Experimentally increased food availability allows for earlier departure in a long‐distance migratory shorebird

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3434-3445, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The timing of animal migrations is an interplay between migration programmes and physiological and environmental conditions. The rate of body store deposition underlies many timing options, with a key unresolved question being whether the rate of body store deposition ...
