About this Research Topic
There has been on-going research on human-induced excitations and vibration serviceability assessment for convention centers, concert halls, elevated floors, stairs, footbridges and stadia structures. The goal of this research topic is to present the recent analytical and experimental research as well as advancements on human-induced excitations and vibrations serviceability for all civil structures.
The scope of this research topic includes but is not limited to:
• Advanced testing/sensing and monitoring methods for vibration serviceability assessment
• Crowd movement on structures such as footbridges, stadia, elevated floors, staircases
• Uncertainty in vibration serviceability assessment
• Passive, active, semi-active control of vibrations
• Damping in vibration serviceability assessment
• Human-structure interaction
• Design guidelines and criteria on vibrations serviceability
• Finite element modeling for vibration serviceability assessment
• Non-structural partitions and their effect on vibration response
Keywords: Human-induced excitations, Vibrations serviceability, Civil engineering structures, Damping, Vibration tolerance
