A distributed remote collaborative hybrid test method for complex substructures based on OpenFresco
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022 Abstract A distributed remote collaborative hybrid test (RCHT) method for complex substructures based on OpenFresco is presented in this paper. Challenges in the RCHT include the modeling of the numerical substructure, boundary degree-of-freedom (DOF) loading, and equivalent communication of the multi-story space frame as a test substructure in
