The problem of load identification denotes identifying loads based on the measurement of
structural responses, which is the inverse problem in structural dynamics. With …

Wind pressures on buildings with different aspect ratios were investigated via higher-order
dynamic mode decomposition (HODMD) in this study. Taken's embedding theorem was …

An accurate description of surface pressure loads imposed by blast waves is crucial for the
design of the next generation of blast-resistant structures. However, experimental …

We describe a method that uses total internal reflection at the water–air interface inside a
large, transparent tank, to measure the interface's deflections. Using this configuration, we …

This paper reports results of full field vibration measurements conducted on a laboratory test
case, a cantilever beam, submitted to a transient excitation using an impact hammer. The …

Spatially distributed load on aircraft structures is difficult to obtain due to the limitation of
measurement technology, the complexity of load and the external environment of the aircraft …

Impacts of a liquid against a solid are found to occur in a variety of scenarios in nature and
industry. At small scales, the knowledge of the force due to the impact of a drop on a solid …

The present paper reports on the experimental study of the dynamics of large-scale vortex
structures in an axisymmetric im**ing jet forced periodically with amplitude modulation …

The crucial role in evaluating structural fatigue life, implementing health monitoring, and
optimizing lightweight and reliable design is played by load identification technology. With …

Deflectometry is a full-field optical technique for surface slope measurement based on
recording the deformation of a grid image. A hybrid method is explored in which the grid …
