Abstract: This paper characterizes the experimental approach used for the evaluation of traffic-induced dynamic effects in Salgueiro Maia cable-stayed bridge. It presents the most significant results obtained both in terms of the ...

Abstract: This paper describes the dynamic tests performed on a large cable-stayed bridge, Vasco da Gama Bridge, on the basis of a nonconventional testing system, comprehending several independent accelerographs conveniently ...

Abstract: This work describes some of the most interesting aspects of the experimental and numerical dynamic analyses of the Luiz I Bridge, an old arch double-deck iron bridge, when subjected to the moving loads of the new light ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of a numerical model to simulate the dynamic response of the bridge–vehicle system of Salgueiro Maia cable-stayed bridge, using the results from an extensive experimental investigation ...

Abstract: The fatigue crack growth behavior of Grainex Mar-M 247 is evaluated for NASA’s turbine seal test facility. The facility is used to test air-to-air seals primarily for use in advanced jet ...

Abstract: NASA’s turbine seal facility tests air-to-air seals for advanced jet engines. High temperature, speed, and pressure combinations limit test disk life, due to crack initiation in the Grainex Mar-M ...

Abstract: There is a clear and present desire from government authorities to actualize processes and procedures that place equity at the forefront of decision-making and improve supply chain resilience. Following a federal executive ...
