Study of pedestrian-induced vibrations on timber footbridges

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
In Brazil, studies about pedestrian-induced vibrations on footbridges have been carried out since the early 1990s, for concrete and steel footbridges. However, there is no record of such studies and the Brazilian Standard NBR 7190 (1997) for the design ...

I Feel I Need to Think about It: A Defence of Affective Moral Enhancement

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 175-182, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Critics of affective moral enhancement generally contend that moral improvement can only be properly achieved through interventions that engage a person's rational faculties. Therefore, they view attempts to achieve moral improvement by targeting emotions as futile at best and detrimental to moral agency at worst.

Evaluating vibrations on a small-scale model of a timber footbridge

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
In Brazil, the study of pedestrian-induced vibration on footbridges has been undertaken since the early 1990s, for concrete and steel footbridges. However, there are no recorded studies of this kind for timber footbridges.

Applicability of Multi‐Agent Simulation for Crowd Control After a Large‐Scale Event

open access: yesJAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 9, Issue 1, January–December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aims to assess the applicability of multi‐agent simulation for crowd control after large‐scale events. It focuses on pedestrian pathways around a stadium in an urban area. By utilizing real‐world pedestrian flow data, we investigated the parameters essential for simulation and analyzed crowd control.

Experimental Assessment of Double‐Skin Tubular Columns Under Eccentric Loads

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 455-460, December 2025.
Abstract The CFDST (concrete‐filled double‐skin tubular) columns consist of concentric steel tubes with concrete filling between them and have a lower self‐weight compared to other configurations of composite columns. Double‐skin columns provide good structural performance, even when subjected to seismic activity, explosions, and dynamic loads ...

Numerical and experimental assessment of a typical brazilian footbridge

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2018
For the range of medium spans, around 30 to 40m, composite footbridges are getting popular in Brazil. This kind of structure consists on longitudinal steel truss beams providing support for a concrete deck usually made of precast elements.

Optimization of Shell Structures with Fuzzy Probability‐Based Random Fields Using Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The structural design optimization aims for robust structures with minimal use of material resources, leading to slender and thin‐walled structures, which entail a higher risk of stability problems. This issue is further influenced by geometrical imperfections, which are subjected to uncertainties.
