Field Investigations On the Lateral Vibration Features Of Prestressed Concrete Stress Ribbon Footbridges

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The prestressed concrete (PC) stress ribbon footbridge is a type of suspension bridge without towers, which has been applied in Japan and all over the world for years in light of its low construction cost and aesthetic merit. It generally consists of the

Some relevant aspects of footbridge vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesFacta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2002
Considering the contemporary structural inaterials that are becoming more resistant, having higher strength to weight ratio, and the fact that live load of footbridges is low, the design based on static analysis only, respecting ultimate limit states ...

Probabilistic Seismic Performance Assessment of an RC Bridge Considering Corrosion‐Affected Bond‐Slip and Steel Bar Buckling

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 14, Page 3594-3609, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete (RC) bridges are designed to remain safe and functional for their lifetime, during which the impacts of aging may result in performance degradation. Steel bar corrosion is one of the most common causes of structural performance degradation in RC structures subjected to earthquakes in seismic‐prone areas.

Saving and Letting Live

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 753-772, November 2025.
Abstract There is a metaphysical difference between person A killing person B and A merely letting B die. There is also a metaphysical difference between A saving B and A merely letting B live. This paper argues that the metaphysical difference between saving and letting live gives rise to a moral difference. It then puts that moral difference to work:

A 6 Metre Long Glass Footbridge for the Ancient Public Slaughterhouse of Pisa

open access: yesChallenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2016
This paper illustrates the design process and the load testing of a steel-reinforced laminated glass beam built for a 6 m span glass footbridge. This specific glass footbridge has been designed and tested to join two existing floors of the main room of a

Distributional justice and climate risk assessment: An analysis of disparities within direct and indirect risk

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 45, Issue 11, Page 3354-3374, November 2025.
Abstract Climate change and natural hazard risk assessments often overlook indirect impacts, leading to a limited understanding of the full extent of risk and the disparities in its distribution across populations. This study investigates distributional justice in natural hazard impacts, exploring its critical implications for environmental justice ...
