Field investigation of fundamental frequency of bridges using ambient vibration measurements

The transient nature of forces induced in structures during earthquakes requires the use of dynamic analyses to fully characterise their behaviour. A modal analysis describes the dynamic response of the structural system through modal descriptors: natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratios....
