A review of vibration-based damage detection in civil structures: From traditional methods to Machine Learning and Deep Learning applications
( Academic Press , 2021 , Article Review)Monitoring structural damage is extremely important for sustaining and preserving the service life of civil structures. While successful monitoring provides resolute and staunch information on the health, serviceability, ... -
A semi-analytical beam model for the vibration of railway tracks
( Academic Press , 2017 , Article)The high frequency dynamic behaviour of railway tracks, in both vertical and lateral directions, strongly affects the generation of rolling noise as well as other phenomena such as rail corrugation. An improved semi-analytical ... -
Active vibration control of flexible cantilever plates using piezoelectric materials and artificial neural networks
( Academic Press , 2016 , Article)The study presented in this paper introduces a new intelligent methodology to mitigate the vibration response of flexible cantilever plates. The use of the piezoelectric sensor/actuator pairs for active control of plates ... -
A comparative study of the treatment of ethylene plant spent caustic by neutralization and classical and advanced oxidation
( Academic Press , 2015 , Article)The treatment of spent caustic produced from an ethylene plant was investigated. In the case of neutralization alone it was found that the maximum removal of sulfide was at pH values below 5.5. The higher percentage removal ... -
Optimization of chiral lattice based metastructures for broadband vibration suppression using genetic algorithms
( Academic Press , 2016 , Article)One of the major challenges in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering is to develop vibration suppression systems with high efficiency and low cost. Recent studies have shown that high damping performance at broadband ... -
Optimization of linear zigzag insert metastructures for low-frequency vibration attenuation using genetic algorithms
( Academic Press , 2017 , Article)Vibration suppression remains a crucial issue in the design of structures and machines. Recent studies have shown that with the use of metamaterial inspired structures (or metastructures), considerable vibration attenuation ... -
Real-time vibration-based structural damage detection using one-dimensional convolutional neural networks
( Academic Press , 2017 , Article)Structural health monitoring (SHM) and vibration-based structural damage detection have been a continuous interest for civil, mechanical and aerospace engineers over the decades. Early and meticulous damage detection has ... -
The effect of track load correlation on ground-borne vibration from railways
( Academic Press , 2017 , Article)In predictions of ground-borne vibration from railways, it is generally assumed that the unevenness profile of the wheel and rail is fully correlated between the two rails and the two wheels of an axle. This leads to ...
