Validity of artificial neural modeling to estimate time-dependent deflection of reinforced concrete beams

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2018
The architecture and weights of an artificial neural network model that predicts time-dependent deflection have been developed and optimized. To satisfy the serviceability limit states, a concrete structure must be serviceable and perform its intended ...

Assessment of the Lateral Vibration Serviceability Limit State of Slender Footbridges Including the Postlock-in Behaviour

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The lateral vibration serviceability of slender footbridges has been the subject of many studies over the last few decades. However, in spite of the large amount of research, a common criterion has not been set yet.

A Review of Evaluation Methods of Standards for Structural Vibration Serviceability under Crowd Walking

open access: yesBuildings
Structures such as long-span footbridges, floors, and long cantilevers are vulnerable to vibration serviceability problems under crowd walking, which should be taken into consideration during the structural design, operation, and maintenance stages ...

Structuring the Service Encounter

open access: yes, 2012
This chapter presents an analysis of the influence of three forms of structuring the service encounter (standardization, spontaneity, minimal structure) on the perception of service quality and job satisfaction. The authors performed two studies (experimental and correlational).

Investigation of Dynamic Responses and Vibration Serviceability of Temporary Grandstands by a 3 DOF Interaction Model due to Swaying Motion

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
Excessive vibration of temporary grandstand by the crowd has lateral rhythmic motions, which attracted increasing attention in the recent years. This paper focuses on experiments where a temporary grandstand occupied by 20 participants is oscillated by a
