Abstract: Dynamic characteristics of cable-stayed bridges are widely accepted as valuable indicators to determine their performance in structural health monitoring (SHM). Although research has been extensively conducted in this area, ...

Abstract: Biomechanical energy harvesters (BMEHs) have shown that useable amounts of electricity can be generated from daily movement. Where access to an electrical power grid is limited, BMEHs are a viable alternative to accommodate ...

Abstract: The installation of soil-cement columns causes excess pore-water pressures and movements of surrounding ground, which affect adjacent underground structures. In Shanghai, a triple-shaft deep soil mixing (DSM) method has ...

Abstract: Dewatering-induced ground settlement is an important issue, and there a cumulative effect in stratified soil settlement. Detailed research of the stratified soil settlement devotes to a better evaluation of ground settlement. ...

Abstract: Security of metro tunnels is extremely important, but the influence of new underground construction on existing tunnels has become more and more important. To control the existing tunnel deformation induced by an adjacent ...
