In recent years, the application of structural control strategies to attenuate the dynamic
response of civil engineering structures subjected to human-induced and environmental …

Digital image correlation (DIC) is an optical technique used to measure surface
displacements and strains in materials and structures. This technique has demonstrated …

Waviness is a common geometrical defect in carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) plates,
characterized by local misalignment of an otherwise region of straight fibers. Presence of …

Random defects on concrete surfaces are a key factor affecting the bonding property of
concrete–epoxy mortar interfaces. In this study, an epoxy–acetone solution was employed to …

This paper presents the design of an Magnetorheological (MR) damper that includes an
arrangement of a piston and cylinder. This study developed a 3-D model based on the finite …

This study aims to review and evaluate the performance of nonparametric and parametric
models of magnetorheological (MR) dampers, which are commonly used as structural …

To further improve the performance of traditional 1DOF quasi-zero stiffness (QZS) isolators,
a new type of vibration isolator with a wide range of zero-stiffness is proposed. For this …

This paper introduces a non-contact method for detecting contact force between pantograph
and catenary (PAC), based on image processing and Kalman filter. A non-contact method …

The concrete floating slab, as a widely-used measure to reduce the subway-induced
vibration and noise, can deteriorate with the accumulation of trainload. To monitor the …

With the continuous development of information technology, artificial intelligence and
location detection technology have gradually penetrated various systems. The research …
