Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is open to researchers, academics, and practitioners in the field of the impact of vibration on buildings. Today, there are many experimental and numerical tools for measuring and simulating dynamic processes in buildings. Ambient vibration has adverse effects but can also serve as a tool for building diagnostics. Further, modern materials are being developed rapidly in terms of their properties to reduce the negative effects of vibrations. Ambient vibration also causes explosions and blasting. Thus, the Special Issue also focuses on the identification of cracks by modern experimental methods whereby ambient vibrations are used as an exciter of vibrations.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

The use of small-scale models is an important area of research today. An investigation is conducted on the response of a small-scale model’s vibrating surface. For this model, a small-scale surface explosion is used for loading. According to the article, the methodology includes procedures, model development, the explosive materials used, measurement and evaluation methods, software, and the technique used. Signal processing and response evaluation rely on a scientific method—the backward Fourier-transform principle—for frequency filtering. In this study, the simulation results are used to confirm the basic physical properties of the viscoelastic system. It is primarily investigated whether wave processes are confirmed on the new material. In terms of single wave propagation, the results summarize the characteristics of these waves (attenuation, velocity of propagation, etc.). Conclusions are targeted at the possibility of correlating three types of results: small-scale simulations, numerical simulations, and a real full-scale experiment. Full article
