Vulnerability assessment of the S. João de Loure Bridge: Vouga’s river [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Steel bridges are particularly sensible to corrosion, which can put at risk the structural safety by affecting the joint elements. Having this in mind, the objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of the joint's stiffness in the structural ...

TBM pressure models: calculation tools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mechanized tunnel construction in soft ground has evolved significantly over the last 20 years, especially on the matter of settlement control. This was achieved by guiding the TBM operation to control the main factors that induce soil displacements ...

S. João de Loure Bridge: vulnerability assessment and study of a common strengthening solution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper presents a structural vulnerability assessment of the steel bridge S. João de Loure. A structural model of the bridge was created and the influence of the joint’s stiffness on its structural response was evaluated using the structural analysis

The Effect of Pedestrian Traffic on the Dynamic Behavior of Footbridges

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2004
The dynamic response of a footbridge depends namely on the natural frequencies of the structure in vertical, in horizontal and in torsion. If any of the frequencies in vertical is in the range 1.0 Hz to 3.0 Hz, the dynamic response from moving people can
