Abstract: Agglomeration of producer services forms the basis for regional industrial layout optimization, whereas urban association adequately describes the spatial pattern of producer services agglomeration. Based on the relationship ...

Abstract: A method is presented for estimating the mode shapes of multispan structures based on the distributed optical fiber strain sensors. The dynamic mode decomposition method was employed to decompose the spatial–temporal strain ...

Abstract: Stress-strain response of optical fibers in direct tension is introduced in this article. The research involved direct tension tests of optical fibers and development of theoretical relationships describing the tensile ...

Abstract: A bridge monitoring approach is proposed for the distributed detection and quantification of crack opening displacements (CODs) along the lengths of large bridges. The proposed method does not require a priori knowledge ...
