Re:Crete - A Footbridge made of Reused Concrete Blocks

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Maléna Bastien Masse, Célia Marine Küpfer, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Julie Rachel Devènes

Today, concrete is the most widely used construction material worldwide. Strong, versatile, durable, and vector of economic development, this exceptional material is also the principal cause of greenhouse-gas emissions, material depletion and waste generat ...

Vibration Serviceability Assessment for Pedestrian Bridges Based on Model Falsification

Ian Smith

With the development of new materials and advanced structural analysis, alongside increasing aesthetic requirements, recent years have witnessed a trend toward longer, taller, and lighter footbridges. Different from vehicular bridges, footbridges carry rel ...

Study on Mechanical Performance of Prestressed UHPFRC U-Beam Bridges

Eugen Brühwiler

The forms of U-shaped UHPFRC beams have not been investigated for the highway footbridge. Compared with the traditional section forms, the U-shaped UHPFRC beams can reduce the material consumption under the condition of providing the same bearing capacity. ...

Overpass bridge of the L3378 road near Fulda-Lehnerz First application of UHPFRC in road bridge construction in Germany. Part 1

Aging bridges of the German federal road network often cannot be rehabilitated or replaced timely due to insufficient funding and complex regulations of building laws. Consequently, novel building materials and alternative solutions get the opportunity to ...

Performance of Pedestrian-Load Models through Experimental Studies on Lightweight Aluminum Bridges

Scott Walbridge, Ann Christine Sychterz

Aluminum structures provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are esthetically pleasing. Hence, their use in bridge construction has recently begun to increase, especially for pedestrian bridges. Because of their relative light ...

Deployment of a tensegrity footbridge

Ian Smith, Nicolas Willy Veuve, Seif Dalil Safaei

Deployable structures are structures that transform their shape from a compact state to an extended in-service position. Structures composed of tension elements that surround compression elements in equilibrium are called tensegrity structures. Tensegritie ...

A Bayesian Approach to Detect Pedestrian Destination-Sequences from WiFi Signatures

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Antonin Danalet

In this paper, we propose a methodology to use the communication network infrastructure, in particular WiFi traces, to detect the sequence of activity episodes visited by pedestrians. Due to the poor quality of WiFi localization, a probabilistic method is ...

Detecting pedestrian destinations from ubiquitous digital footprint

Antonin Danalet

Walking is the key for efficient multimodal transport systems. Pedestrian infrastructures, such as railway stations, face congestion and need to understand flows. Data is required for models that can help managers in their infrastructure planning. In this ...

Revealed preference data from WiFi traces for pedestrian activity scheduling

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Antonin Danalet

We use communication network infrastructure, in particular WiFi traces, to detect activity-episodes sequences in a pedestrian facility. Due to the poor quality of WiFi localization, a probabilistic method is proposed that infers activity-episodes locations ...

Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
