Identification of a Human-Structure Interaction Model on an Ultra-Lightweight FRP Footbridge
Applied Sciences, 2021 Due to the high strength-to-weight ratio of fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs), human-induced vibration problematic remains as a subject to be fully comprehended in order to extend the use of composites in Bridge Engineering.

Quantification of human-structure interaction [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2015 In lightweight structural systems there is increasing evidence that the presence of humans influences the dynamics characteristics of the system. In the past, most effort on determining the footfall-induced vertical force to the walking surface has been ...

A simplified method to account for vertical human-structure interaction
Structures, 2021 Abstract To account for vertical human-structure interaction (HSI) in the vibration serviceability analysis, the contact force between the pedestrian and the structure can be modelled as the superposition of the force induced by the pedestrian on a rigid surface and the force resulting from the mechanical interaction between the structure and the ...

Damping and frequency of human-structure interaction system [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2015 Human presence can change the dynamic characteristics of human-structure interaction systems, i.e. particularly their damping and frequency. In many design codes, the pedestrian is regarded as a moving force (MF) while a more complete model, referred to ...

A framework for quantification of human-structure interaction in vertical direction [PDF]
Journal of Sound and Vibration, 2018 In lightweight structures, there is increasing evidence of the existence of interaction between pedestrians and structures, now commonly termed pedestrian-structure interaction. The presence of a walker can alter the dynamic characteristics of the human-structure system compared with those inherent to the empty structure.

Effects of human-structure interaction in slabs [PDF]
DYNA, 2014 During the last several decades, stronger and lighter materials have been developed with the aim of optimizing performance and building costs. These technological advances have given rise to thin flexible flooring systems with natural frequencies that lie within the frequency range of vibrations produced by human activity.

The influence of human motion state on human-structure interaction [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 Under pedestrian load, significant vibration and comfort problems are easy to arise for large-span low-frequency structures so that human-structure interaction should be considered in the design.

Integrating feedback control for improved human-structure interaction analysis
Frontiers in Built EnvironmentThe human body, composed of interconnected subsystems with complex dynamic behavior, is often oversimplified or neglected by structural designers and building codes. Human-induced loads, whether passive (e.g., standing, sitting) or active (e.g., walking,
