An effective sensor network with an appropriate sensor configuration is the first step of
model updating to obtain the actual structural response. However, sensor placements based …

Cultural Heritage preservation requires the combination of in situ investigations and
accurate Finite Elements models in order to correctly interpret the empirical evidence and …

In this paper the actual dynamic behavior of the civic Clock tower of Rotella, a little village in
central Italy heavily damaged by the recent 2016 seismic sequence, is thoroughly …

The carbody shaking phenomenon (CSP) can greatly reduce the ride comfort of high-speed
trains. To investigate the abnormal vibration feature and causes of the CSP, extensive field …

A framework for optimal sensor placement (OSP) for virtual sensing using the modal
expansion technique and taking into account uncertainties is presented based on …

Recent advances in computing performance and simulation tools allow today the
development of high-fidelity computational models which accurately reproduce the structural …

A significant part of the existing building stock in regions of low to moderate seismic hazard
has been designed without modern seismic considerations and is, in the meantime …

Establishing a high-fidelity twin model and accurately analyzing instant mechanical
behaviors are important ways to improve structural reliability. This study proposes a digital …

Real structures mode shapes estimated by modal analysis techniques have a common
feature: in most cases they are complex, and their level of complexity can be soundly …

Identifying the local properties of a structure, either to perform structural health monitoring or
to fine tune a numerical model, requires the updating of a large number of parameters. With …
