Output-only modal identification has seen significant activity in recent years, especially in
large-scale structures where controlled input force generation is often difficult to achieve …

Aluminum structures provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are
esthetically pleasing. Hence, their use in bridge construction has recently begun to increase …

In this paper, the problem of underdetermined modal identification where the number of
modes to be identified is larger than the available sensor measurements is addressed using …

Most of the vibration-based ambient modal identification methods in the literature are
structured to process vibration data collected from a dense array of sensors centrally to yield …

This paper investigates the use of kriging as a powerful tool for mode shape interpolation in
flexible pedestrian bridges. Kriging can be used to interpolate a set of sparse mode shape …

Many of the existing ambient modal identification methods based on vibration data process
information centrally to calculate the modal properties. Such methods demand relatively …

An increase in the use of lightweight materials and emphasis on architecturally appealing
designs has resulted in lively pedestrian bridges. A prominent example for this is the …

In order to characterize the dynamic properties of bridges, many modal identification
methods have been developed, which have been thoroughly published and evaluated …
