1. 1. Analysis of Footbridge Comfort Vibrations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : Niklas Thuresson; Henrik Ruuth; [2023]
   Keywords : footbridges; dynamics; vibrations; accelerations; Sétra; comfort vibrations; natural frequencies; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. READ MORE

3. 2. A parametric study of the static and dynamic performance of timber arch footbridges with different hanger configurations

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : ALEJANDRO GARCÍA GARCÍA; [2022]
   Keywords : Arch bridges; footbridge dynamics; critical load; bridge typology; parametric study;

   Abstract : The influence of the hanger configuration in the arch and deck bending moments under asymmetric loads is widely used nowadays for improved designs of arch bridges. In this work, by means of a parametric study, those hanger configurations that most efficiently increase both the natural frequencies and buckling factors are identified, simultaneously evaluating the dynamic and static performance of timber arch footbridges.

4. 3. House of the Footbridge

   University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

   Author : Klara Rubensson; [2022]
   Keywords : Arboga; medborgarhus; översvämning; naturspång;

   Abstract : BACKGROUNDThe new footbridge is located a short walk from the medieval city center in Arboga. The idea of a pedestrian overcrossing was a result of a group project during the fall semester; a solution that reactualizes the creek Arbogaån which lost its role as a vital social function for the industries when the canal was built in the 17th century.

5. 4. Response of Footbridges equipped with TLD : A numerical and experimental assessment

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Silhady Tshitende Luboya; [2020]
   Keywords : Tuned liquid damper; tuned mass damper; dynamic analysis; dynamics evaluation; vibration; footbridge; human-induced vibrations; parametric study; serviceability; assessment.;

   Abstract : In recent years, an increase to design slender and aesthetically-pleasing structures have resulted in some structures having a low natural frequency. This is because the design calculation did not meet the requirement of serviceability performance. READ MORE

6. 5. A pre-study of the dynamic behavior of a single diagonal timber arch bridge

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Xiaoqi Wang; Shufan Ye; [2020]
   Keywords : : single diagonal arch bridge; timber bridge; footbridge; finite element analysis; resonance induced vibration; bridge dynamics; dimensional analysis;

   Abstract : The aim of this Master’s thesis was to study the dynamic behaviour of a special type ofpedestrian timber bridge with a single diagonal arch - a design proposal made in a previousstudent project. The bridge is intended to be built as a gateway to the Alfred Nobel’s Björkbornin the municipality of Karlskoga. READ MORE
