Statistical Analysis of Stress Signals from Bridge Monitoring by FBG System

open access: yesSensors, 2018
In this paper, a fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based stress monitoring system instrumented on an orthotropic steel deck arch bridge is demonstrated. The FBG sensors are installed at two types of critical fatigue-prone welded joints to measure the strain and ...

Vibrational Response of Solid RC Slab System Under Synchronized Multiperson Walking Excitation

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Solid reinforced concrete (RC) floor systems have become susceptible to vibration from walking‐induced excitation due to the lightweight characteristics of concrete. This reduces the serviceability of the building in terms of occupant discomfort, adaptability to dynamic load, durability issues resulting from undesirable cracking, and service life.

High‐Cycle Fatigue Assessment Method for Composite Bridges Based on Predamage Mechanics Model

open access: yesStructural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Long‐span bridges face the significant challenge of deteriorating life cycles under fatigue loads. A new macroscopic damage mechanics model for rod hinge elements has been proposed to quantify the predamage of bridge beams subjected to high‐cycle fatigue.
