An Experimental Investigtion of Spatial Repeatability

O'Connor, Alan ; O'Brien, Eugene J. ; Jacob, Bernard (Inderscience Enterprises Limited, 2000)

The results of an experimental road research project are presented which demonstrate the existence of spatial repeatability and show patterns of axle impact forces along a pavement. As part of the project, a section of ...
Reduction of bridge dynamic amplification through adjustment of vehicle suspension damping

Harris, Niall K. ; O'Brien, Eugene J. ; González, Arturo (Elsevier, 2007-05)

This paper presents a novel approach to the reduction of short-span bridge dynamic responses to heavy vehicle crossing events. The reductions are achieved through adjustment of the vehicle suspension damping coefficient ...
