Acceleration feedback control of human-induced floor vibrations [PDF]

Engineering Structures, 2010
Active vibration control (AVC) via a proof-mass actuator is considered to be a suitable technique for the mitigation of vibrations caused by human motions in floor structures. It has been observed that actuator dynamics strongly influence structure dynamics despite considering collocated actuator/sensor control.

Multi-mode interactions in vortex-induced vibrations of flexible curved/straight structures with geometric nonlinearities [PDF]

, 2010
A general low-order fluid-structure interaction model capable of evaluating the multi-mode interactions in vortex-induced vibrations of flexible curved/straight structures is presented.

Experimental Evaluation of the Driving Parameters in Human–Structure Interaction

Vibration, 2022
Many studies in the literature have already evidenced that pedestrians are able to change the dynamic properties of slender structures (e.g., footbridges and staircases).

MODELLING OF PEDESTRIAN-INDUCED LOAD IN SERVICEABILITY LIMIT STATE ANALYSIS OF FOOTBRIDGES

Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2022
The last few decades new trends in the design of pedestrian bridges have resulted in lighter and more slender structures. This leads to a reduction in natural frequencies and increased flexibility, and thus a greater possibility for structures to become ...

Numerical Model for Human Induced Vibrations [PDF]

, 2017
This paper proposes a new model for describing the effect of people on the dynamic behaviour of slender structures. The influence of people is described by using the so-called ground reaction forces. These are split into two types: passive ground reaction forces and active ground reaction forces.

Influence of bodily resonances on emotional prosody perception

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
IntroductionEmotional prosody is defined as suprasegmental and segmental changes in the human voice and related acoustic parameters that can inform the listener about the emotional state of the speaker.

EVALUATION OF HUMAN INDUCED VIBRATIONS IN KJÆRRA BRIDGE

Proceedings of the XI International Conference on Structural Dynamics, 2020
The users of the 132-meter-long Kjærra Bridge in Larvik, Norway, noticed severe lateral vibrations due to pedestrian loading on the opening day in 2001. During the period that the bridge was designed, there were no clear guidelines to minimize pedestrian induced vibrations in footbridges.

Analysis of human-induced vibrations in a lightweight framework [PDF]

Applied Acoustics, 2016
This article analyzes the vibratory behavior of a Material-Composed Sandwich (MCS) framework for residential buildings. It has been observed qualitatively that the use of this kind of framework leads to poor comfort levels. The goal of this study is to find out the sources of this lack of comfort, in order to suggest guidelines that can enhance the ...

Investigation of the Rail-Induced Vibrations on a Masonry Historical Building [PDF]

, 2010
Increasingly historic masonry buildings are subjected to higher levels of traffic and rail vibrations due to urbanization and population growth. Deterioration and destabilisation of these buildings may result, especially if they were previously damaged ...
