Some relevant aspects of footbridge vibrations [PDF]
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2002 Considering the contemporary structural inaterials that are becoming more resistant, having higher strength to weight ratio, and the fact that live load of footbridges is low, the design based on static analysis only, respecting ultimate limit states ...

Influence of anchoring and bracing system on dynamic characteristics of façade scaffolding [PDF]
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2023 The basic dynamic characteristics of façade scaffolding are natural frequencies of vibrations and corresponding mode shapes. These properties affect the scaffolding safety, as well as comfort and safety of its users.

Vibration Serviceability of the Aberfeldy Footbridge under Various Human-Induced Loadings
Materials, 2023 Developing new structural materials, such as composite materials, has provided many opportunities in bridge engineering. Among these materials, glass-fiber-reinforced polymers (GFRPs), in particular, have found applications in footbridges. However, some of the commonly recognized advantages of GFRPs, such as the high values of the strength/weight ratio,

Human induced vibration of staircases: Measurements and analysis [PDF]
, 2019 While there are numerous design guidelines for oscillations of floors, staircases have received comparatively less attention. Dynamic testing of existing staircases can improve understanding of their behaviour and lead to more accurate methods for predicting accelerations in service.

Measuring human-induced vibrations of civil engineering structures via vision-based motion tracking [PDF]
, 2016 We present a novel framework for measuring the body motion of multiple individuals in a group or crowd via a vision-based tracking algorithm, thus to enable studies of human-induced vibrations of civil engineering structures, such as floors and ...
