Vibrations of composite steel-concrete floors induced by human activities [PDF]
The latest demands in construction design towards slender structures with large spans, large open interiors, unconventional shapes and constructional solutions are leading to the extensive problems related to the serviceability limit state.

EVALUATION OF HUMAN INDUCED VIBRATIONS IN KJÆRRA BRIDGE
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.

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

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

Vortex-induced vibrations of a long flexible cylinder in shear flow [PDF]
We investigate the in-line and cross-flow vortex-induced vibrations of a long cylindrical tensioned beam, with length to diameter ratio L/D = 200, placed within a linearly sheared oncoming flow, using three-dimensional direct numerical simulation.
