Operational modal analysis methods have been proven especially useful to identify existing
structures and infrastructures under serviceability conditions. However, the installation of …

This paper compares three approaches for predicting the bridge response under moving
vehicles. The first approach represents the vehicle as a concentrated moving load, while the …

Visual inspections generally represent the initial step of the safety assessment of bridges. In
particular, steel railway bridges are particularly prone to corrosion phenomena. Therefore …

Modal identification based on ambient vibration has gained increasing importance in
monitoring the operational behavior of dams. This paper develops a robust automated …

In a companion paper (Vol. 248, Article 108227), we demonstrated the dependence of tire
parameters on the modal characteristics of a stationary tire. For a more realistic scenario …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is nowadays a significant and topical issue in the civil
engineering field, whose first-level task is the damage detection job. Recent advances in …

Tire vibrations play an important role in determining vehicle ride characteristics. Tires are
complex inflated structures making them difficult to model analytically. Due to this modeling …

The late opportunities prompted by artificial intelligence have motivated the current research
about structural damage detection strategies based on damage-sensitive subspace-based …

The current standards need more specific serviceability criteria for Cross-Laminated Timber
(CLT) floors. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of a relevant case study in …

Abstract Finite Element Model (FEM) updating is the procedure of minimizing errors between
the experimental measurements and response simulated by FEMs. It can lead to more …
