Probabilistic bridge weigh-in-motion [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018 Conventional bridge weigh-in-motion (BWIM) uses a bridge influence line to find the axle weights of passing vehicles that minimize the sum of squares of differences between theoretical and measured responses. An alternative approach, probabilistic bridge weigh-in-motion (pBWIM), is proposed here.

Limitations of the effectiveness of Weigh in Motion systems [PDF]
Open Engineering, 2020 Overloaded vehicles pose a real threat to road safety and significantly contribute to the degradation of the road surface. High-Speed Weigh in Motion (HS-WIM) stations are the commonly used method of eliminating them from traffic.

The Effect of Flexible Pavement Mechanics on the Accuracy of Axle Load Sensors in Vehicle Weigh-in-Motion Systems [PDF]
Sensors, 2017 Weigh-in-Motion systems are tools to prevent road pavements from the adverse phenomena of vehicle overloading. However, the effectiveness of these systems can be significantly increased by improving weighing accuracy, which is now insufficient for direct

A regularised solution to the bridge weigh-in-motion equations [PDF]
International Journal of Heavy Vehicle Systems, 2009 The traditional approach to Bridge Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) developed by Moses, gives good accuracy for estimating gross vehicle weights but is less accurate for individual axle weights. In this paper, Tikhonov regularisation is applied to the original Moses' equations to reduce some of the inaccuracies inherent within the algorithm.
