Vibration analysis of footbridges: an overview of the current practice

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The design of a footbridge is typically controlled by serviceability criteria. The dynamic forces induced by pedestrians may result in high-amplitude vibrations that the users may feel as uncomfortable, or unsafe. As a consequence of the several cases of

Vertical Vibrations of Footbridges Due to Group Loading: Effect of Pedestrian–Structure Interaction

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The vibration serviceability of footbridges has evolved from the adoption of a single pedestrian crossing in the resonance condition to load cases in which several pedestrians cross the structure simultaneously.

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 ...

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

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2011
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.

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.

A Computer Vision-Based Pedestrian Flow Management System for Footbridges and Its Applications

open access: yesInfrastructures
Urban footbridges are critical infrastructure increasingly challenged by vibration issues induced by crowd activity. Real-time monitoring of pedestrian dynamics is essential for evaluating structural safety, ensuring pedestrian comfort, and enabling ...

Walking-induced vibration of a footbridge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the last years, the need for structures able to link the functional and aesthetic role has led engineers and architects to design footbridges characterized by long span, light materials and increasing slenderness.

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 ...
