Buildings, 2022 Current codes and guidelines for the dynamic design of footbridges often only specify the pedestrian-induced excitations. However, earthquakes may occur during the passing stage of pedestrians in earthquake-prone regions.

Quantification of Dynamic Excitation Potential of Pedestrian Population Crossing Footbridges [PDF]
Shock and Vibration, 2011 Due to their slenderness, many modern footbridges may vibrate significantly under pedestrian traffic. Consequently, the vibration serviceability of these structures under human-induced dynamic loading is becoming their governing design criterion.

Vibrational performance of pedestrian bridges due to human-induced loads. [PDF]
, 1997 The vibrational performance of footbridges due to human-induced loads has been investigated, based on modal and pedestrian tests carried out on three prototype footbridges.

MODELLING OF PEDESTRIAN-INDUCED LOAD IN SERVICEABILITY LIMIT STATE ANALYSIS OF FOOTBRIDGES
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2022 The last few decades new trends in the design of pedestrian bridges have resulted in lighter and more slender structures. This leads to a reduction in natural frequencies and increased flexibility, and thus a greater possibility for structures to become ...

Shear Lag Effects on Pedestrian-Induced Vibration and TMD-Based Vibration Control of Footbridges [PDF]
Structural Engineering International, 2022 The shear lag effect (SLE) is one of the vital mechanical characteristics of structures with thin-walled box sections. While most existing studies of the SLE focus on the static response of footbridges, pedestrian-induced vibration deserves more attention since it represents the actual response of footbridges during their practical service process.

Parameter Calibration of a Social Force Model for the Crowd-Induced Vibrations of Footbridges
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2021 A reliable prediction of the human-induced vibrations of footbridges relies on an accurate representation of the pedestrian excitation for different loading scenario. Particularly, the modeling of crowd-induced dynamic loading is a critical issue for the

Applied Sciences, 2021 As human occupancy has an enormous effect on the dynamics of light, flexible, large-span, low-damping structures, which are sensitive to human-induced vibrations, it is essential to investigate the effects of pedestrian–structure interaction.

Optimal actuator placement for control of vibrations induced by pedestrian-bridge interactions
Mathematics in Applied Sciences and Engineering, 2023 In this paper, an optimal actuator placement problem, with a linear wave equation as the constraint, is considered. In particular, this work presents the framework for finding the best location of actuators depending upon the given initial conditions ...
