Microbialite Niches Across the Archean and Paleoproterozoic

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract Changes in microbialite abundance during the Archean and Paleoproterozoic have been attributed to a variety of environmental and biological factors, yet past work looking at large‐scale patterns of microbialite abundance generally assumes shallow marine deposition rather than incorporating specific settings.

Tensile response of textile reinforced concrete incorporating synthetic fibres

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 6203-6228, October 2025.
Abstract Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is a composite material where a textile fabric (typically in carbon) is embedded within a cementitious matrix. This material has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional reinforced concrete, allowing for the construction of light and durable structures with a limited impact in terms of CO2‐eq ...

NExT‐LF: A Novel Operational Modal Analysis Method via Tangential Interpolation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 401-414, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Operational modal analysis (OMA) is vital for identifying modal parameters under real‐world conditions, yet existing methods often face challenges with noise sensitivity and stability. This study introduces NExT‐LF, a novel method that combines the well‐known Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) with the Loewner Framework (LF). NExT enables the

Conception of cable-stayed curved deck: the effects of unilateral suspension

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2018
In systems of suspended cable bridges, the cable-stayed bridges have been widely used because of its capacity to overcome large spans and not require large areas of support during their execution, minimizing interference with existing vehicle flow or ...

Computer vision wireless sensors for displacement influence line/surface measurement of footbridges using stationary pedestrian loading

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 23, Page 3688-3706, 19 September 2025.
Abstract Although using a heavy vehicle at a consistent speed is a common method to estimate displacement influence lines or displacement influence surfaces (DILs/DISs) of vehicular bridges, it requires algorithms to separate the dynamic and static components from measured displacements.

Central area redd project [Ribble, Hodder and Lune catchments] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Redd counting is an integral part of most Fishery Officers duties. The number and distribution of salmonid redds throughout salmonid catchments provides invaluable information on the range and extent of spawning by both salmon and sea trout.

Experimental evaluation of vibration based damage identification techniques on a pedestrian bridge

open access: yesDyna, 2019
Failures of civil structures, such as bridges, due to natural events or anthropic loads can generate significant social and economic impacts. As an alternative for the identification of damage in these structures, dynamic structural health monitoring has

Killing, letting die, and normative inertia

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 728-749, September 2025.
Abstract According to commonsense and deontological ethics, it is impermissible to kill a person in order to save the life of another person, all else being equal. But why? This article suggests a justification of this restriction. It appeals to the idea of normative inertia—very roughly, to the idea that in practical decisions, changing course is ...

TRAVEL ADJUSTMENTS AFTER ROAD CLOSURE: WORKINGTON [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The closure of all roads links between south and north Workington following the floods of November 2009 produced an unusual travel situation. Provision of a frequent and free train service and the erection of a footbridge brought good access between both

Analysis of Harmonic Vibration of Cable-Stayed Footbridge under the Influence of Changes of the Cables Tension

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015
The paper presents numerical analysis of harmonically excited vibration of a cable-stayed footbridge caused by a load function simulating crouching (squats) while changing the static tension in chosen cables.
