Parameter Calibration of a Social Force Model for the Crowd-Induced Vibrations of Footbridges
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2021 A reliable prediction of the human-induced vibrations of footbridges relies on an accurate representation of the pedestrian excitation for different loading scenario. Particularly, the modeling of crowd-induced dynamic loading is a critical issue for the

City of Skywalks: Exploring Hong Kong’s Public Space and Power of Discourse from Footbridges
Social Sciences, 2022 As a public space and building, the footbridge is not just a physical concrete building but also carries people’s life experiences and beliefs. In Hong Kong, however, footbridges are a joint product of the government and property developers to control ...

Serviceability analysis for human-induced vertical vibration on pedestrian structures
Revista UIS Ingenierías, 2022 Civil engineering structures such as grandstands, slabs, footbridges and staircases have reported unacceptable vertical vibration when they are affected by human activities. Even when most of these structures are designed according to current guidelines

Evaluation of TMD Performance in Footbridges Using Human Walking Probabilistic Models
Vibration, 2021 Footbridges are generally slender and lightweight structures with low stiffness, designed to support dynamic loads generated by crowds. Therefore, these structures are exposed to vibration problems related to the resonance of human walking step ...

Evaluation of Pedestrian Facilities in Al-Najaf City [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Less attention to pedestrian facilities significantly affects traffic flow, such as side friction and delay. It was noted that a high interaction, in Al-Najaf city, with the vehicular stream by pedestrians resulted in a reduction in the performance of ...

Comparative analysis of dynamic load models generated by runners on footbridges [PDF]
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2023 Footbridges, like all building structures, must be designed in a way that ensures their safe and comfortable use. Steel footbridges characterised by low vibration damping often turn out to be a structure susceptible to the dynamic influence of users ...

Benchmark footbridge for vibration serviceability assessment under vertical component of pedestrian load [PDF]
, 2012 Vibration serviceability criteria are governing the design and determining the cost of modern, slender footbridges. Efficient and reliable evaluation of dynamic performance of these structures usually requires a detailed insight into the structural ...
