Vibration displacement response is widely used in the field of structural health monitoring
(SHM) to monitor the health condition of civil engineering structures. Traditionally, the …

Given their intrinsic features, adaptive facades are required to satisfy rigid structural
performances, in addition to typical insulation, thermal and energy requirements. These …

Vibration in state-of-the-art machining impacts accuracy by diminishing the machine's
dynamic precision and the workpiece surface quality. The dependability of the cutters and …

Structural glass represents a relatively new solution for constructions, requiring appropriate
knowledge, but is largely used for facades, roofs, footbridges, etc. There, composite systems …

Load-bearing laminated glass (LG) elements take the form of simple members in buildings
(ie, columns, beams, and plates) or realize stand-alone assemblies, where glass and other …

Glass suspension footbridges or glass-bottomed suspension footbridges, such as the
Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge in China, are increasingly constructed in scenic …

Mechanical and dynamic characteristics of basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP)
composites were experimentally investigated in terms of natural frequency and damping …

Glass-bottomed suspension footbridges are increasingly constructed, especially in scenic
regions, because of glass-bottomed and transparent decks to, eg attract tourists. This study …

The vibration performance of pedestrian structures has attracted the attention of several
studies, especially with respect to unfavourable operational conditions or possible damage …

Mechanical performance assessment of load-bearing elements under ordinary design
actions is a priority when material degradation or even severe damage may be experienced …
