Abstract: Laboratory study on the identification of moving vehicle axle loads on a multi-span continuous bridge from the measured bending moment responses is presented. A bridge-vehicle system model was ...

Abstract: Both the time domain method (TDM) and frequency-time domain method (FTDM) are introduced and modified for the indirect identification of multi-axle vehicle loads from the bending moment responses ...

Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of identifying a system of forces from vehicle crossing a guideway using only the vibration responses caused by the forces as the input without knowledge of ...

Abstract: This paper treats the interaction of outrigger-belt systems (OBS) with structural frames in high-rise buildings with composite columns caused by differential axial shortening (DAS). The presence of OBS significantly reduces ...
