investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Integrated Decision Support System for Bridges at Conceptual Design Stage
Subjectivity is the main factor that affects the selection process of a bridge type at the conceptual design stage. Selecting the bridge type is generally influenced by many parameters. In most cases, these parameters are evaluated and assessed by engineers based on their own experience, knowledge and judgment. Therefore, in an attempt to provide some consistency and objectivity to the selectio...
متن کاملPole placement algorithm for control of civil structures subjected to earthquake excitation
In this paper the control algorithm for controlled civil structures subjected to earthquake excitation is thoroughly investigated. The objective of this work is the control of structures by means of the pole placement algorithm, in order to improve their response against earthquake actions. Successful application of the algorithm requires judicious placement of the closed-loop eigenvalues from ...
متن کاملLateral excitation of bridges by balancing pedestrians
On its opening day, the London Millennium Bridge (LMB) experienced unexpected large amplitude lateral vibrations due to crowd loading. This form of pedestrian–structure interaction has since been identified on several other bridges of various structural forms. The mechanism has generally been attributed to ‘pedestrian synchronous lateral excitation’ or ‘pedestrian lock-in’. However, some of the...
متن کاملControl of Structural Response Under Earthquake Excitation
This study firstly proposes some representative simple methods to obtain the suboptimal passive damping and stiffness parameters from the optimal control gain matrix since it is not possible to add the exact optimal damping and stiffness parameters to the structure in practice. It is shown numerically that modifying the structural damping and the stiffness in the proposed suboptimal ways may su...
