Vibration tests on interconnected timber elements using wood-wood connections

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Jean-François Bocquet

Vibration tests were performed on 3 large-scale timber slabs using wood-wood connections with a span of 8.1 meters. 10 impulsive vibration tests per specimen were performed to estimate the initial natural frequency. Vibrations were triggered using a hammer ...

Evaluation of time-frequency features as detectors of lack of balance due to tripping-like perturbations

Silvestro Micera

Unbalancing events during gait can end up in falls and, thus, injury. Detecting events that could bring to fall and consequently activating fall prevention systems before the impact may help to mitigate related injuries. However, there is uncertainty about ...

Characteristics of a bridge condition assessment method based on state representation methodology (SRM) and damage detection sensitivity

Eugen Brühwiler

The State Representation Methodology (SRM) combined with the Frequency Slice Wavelet Transform (FSWT), which is a new time-frequency analysis tool, is proposed for assessing the condition of bridges on the basis of bridge monitoring data. First, this paper ...

A Single Hydrogen Molecule as an Intensity Chopper in an Electrically Driven Plasmonic Nanocavity

Klaus Kern, Anna Maria Roslawska, Abhishek Grewal, Christoph Grosse, Christopher Chih-Wan Loo Leon

Photon statistics is a powerful tool for characterizing the emission dynamics of nanoscopic systems and their photophysics. Recent advances that combine correlation spectroscopy with scanning tunneling microscopy induced luminescence (STML) have allowed th ...

Tower and Path-Dependent Voltage Effects on the Measurement of Grounding Impedance for Lightning Studies

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga, Hamidreza Karami, Keyhan Sheshyekani

We present an analysis aimed at evaluating the effect of the presence of the tower on the measurement of the grounding impedance. The Numerical Electromagnetics Code NEC-4 is used for the full-wave modeling of the structure including the tower and its foot ...

A Magnet-Based Timing System to Detect Gate Crossings in Alpine Ski Racing

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel

In alpine skiing, intermediate times are usually measured with photocells. However, for practical reasons, the number of intermediate cells is limited to three⁻four, making a detailed timing analysis difficult. In this paper, we propose and validate a magn ...
