Experimental characterisation of walking locomotion on rigid level surfaces using motion capture system
(Elsevier, 17 March 2015)Low-frequency structures, such as footbridges and long-span floors, are often sensitive to variations in dynamic loading induced by pedestrians. As a result, the design of these structures using traditional deterministic ... -
Mechanical properties of concrete reinforced with recycled HDPE plastic fibres
(Elsevier, 22 April 2016)This work investigates potential engineering benefits of the pioneering application of simply extruded recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic fibres in structural concrete. Mechanical and serviceability properties ... -
Influence of Low-Frequency Vertical Vibration on Walking Locomotion
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 6 July 2016)Walking locomotion has been a subject of studies in diverse research fields, such as computer, medical, and sport sciences, biomechanics, and robotics, resulting in improved understanding of underlying body motion and gait ... -
Measuring Ground Reaction Force and Quantifying Variability in Jumping and Bobbing Actions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 24 August 2016)This paper investigates variability in bobbing and jumping actions, including variations within a population of eight test subjects (intersubject variability) and variability on a cycle-by-cycle basis for each individual ... -
Frequency response function-based explicit framework for dynamic identification in human-structure systems
(Elsevier, 19 February 2018)The aim of this paper is to propose a novel theoretical framework for dynamic identification in a structure occupied by a single human. The framework enables the prediction of the dynamics of the human-structure system ...
