Abstract: Slender floor structures are becoming increasingly prone to excessive vibration due to human-induced walking excitation. To prevent discomfort of floor occupants and/or malfunctioning of sensitive equipment, it is necessary ...

Abstract: Walking locomotion has been a subject of studies in diverse research fields, such as computer, medical, and sport sciences, biomechanics, and robotics, resulting in improved understanding of underlying body motion and gait ...

Abstract: This paper investigates variability in bobbing and jumping actions, including variations within a population of eight test subjects (intersubject variability) and variability on a cycle-by-cycle basis for each individual ...

Abstract: The research into modeling walking-induced dynamic loading and its effects on footbridge structures and people using them has been intensified in the past decade after some high profile vibration serviceability failures. ...

Abstract: Progress in quantifying and codifying pedestrian–structure interaction with a vertical structural vibration and the effects on both human beings and structures has been slow, primarily owing to a lack of experimental ...
