Abstract Vibration‐based approaches to structural health monitoring (SHM) gained increasing significance for assessing the behaviour of existing structures because of their non‐intrusive nature and high sensitivity to damage. However, data availability often limits the application of SHM approaches.

In this paper, the vibration of a wheel running on a light rail equipped with rail dampers that use a mixed damping system (rubber–oil) is investigated under the excitation of random roughness on the rolling surfaces, to demonstrate the influence of such

In order to reduce the ground-borne vibration caused by wheel/rail interaction in the ballastless track of high speed railways, viscoelastic asphalt concrete materials are filled between the track and the subgrade to attenuate wheel/rail force.

Active control of structural response is the most practical and effective approach to mitigate helicopter vibration and enhance ride quality. In this paper, adaptive feedforward vibration control is constructed for the helicopter cabin floor driven by piezoelectric stack actuators (PSAs).

The article describes an alteration of the traditional method of input‐output feedback linearization by applying a linear‐nonlinear decomposition of a system. The modified method makes it possible to obtain an equivalent linear model of the system in the presence of parametric uncertainties and disturbances.

A ‘receptive’ boundary layer [PDF]
Receptivity is the process which describes how environmental disturbances (such as gusts, acoustic waves or wall roughness) are filtered by a boundary layer and turned into downstream-growing waves. It is closely related to the identification of initial conditions for the disturbances and requires knowledge of the characteristics of the specific ...

Closed‐Form Design and Understanding of Vertical Inerter–Based Dampers for Wind Turbines
Wind turbines with larger capacities face bending deformation due to taller towers and longer blades, necessitating mitigation against extreme seismic loads. A vertically installed inerter‐based damper, referred to as the tuned viscous mass damper (TVMD), is proposed alongside a closed‐form design approach.

Bridge Flutter Prediction and Active Control Using Modal Information and Flutter Margins
In this paper, a flutter prediction method based on flutter margins is proposed for streamlined bridges whose aeroelastic behavior can be well approximated by a two‐degree‐of‐freedom (2‐DoF) flutter model. The method enables prediction of the flutter boundary by extrapolating a curve of flutter margin versus wind speed, constructed using flutter ...
