In practice, the structural analysis and design of pedestrian systems subjected to human-induced vibrations is often based on simplified biodynamic models that can be used in place of even more complex computational strategies to describe Human-Struc...
For structural design purposes, human-induced loads on pedestrian systems can be described by several simplified (i.e., deterministic equivalent-force models) or more complex computational approaches. Among others, the Spring-Mass-Damper (SMD), Singl...
Due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, extrudability, and recyclability, there is a growing demand for the use of aluminum for sustainable bridge constructions, especially for footbridges. Owing to their light weight and live...
In this study, an adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) control strategy based on the strain measurement of a fiber Bragg grating (FGB) sensor array is proposed for the vibration suppression of a complicated flexible-sloshing coupled system, which usual...
