Toward Workable and Cost-Efficient Monitoring of Unstable Rock Compartments with Ambient Noise
Geosciences, 2021 Ambient Vibration-Based Structural Health Monitoring (AVB–SHM) studies on prone-to-fall rock compartments have recently succeeded in detecting both pre-failure damaging processes and reinforcement provided by bolting.

Multi-objective optimal design of inerter-based vibration absorbers for earthquake protection of multi-storey building structures [PDF]
, 2019 In recent years different inerter - based vibration absorbers (IVAs) emerged for the earthquake protection of building structures coupling viscous and tuned - mass dampers with an inerter device . In the three most popular IVAs the inerter is functioning
