Résumé

Over recent years there has been a growing interest in the building frequency analysis for earthquake and structural engineering fields using ambient vibrations. Simultaneously, velocity measurements with LASER remote sensing techniques have gained more interest for several applications. This paper details the comparison of the frequency analysis obtained using sensitive velocimeter sensor and coherent LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensor, and applied to one RC existing building. Ambient vibrations recordings were processed using the Frequency Domain Decomposition method for defining the frequencies and mode shapes of the building target, while LASER remote sensing approach used coherent LIDAR method for velocity and frequency measurement. The results of the two systems are discussed. A good agreement is observed, which let us conclude on the ability of the coherent LIDAR to assess the frequency of existing buildings for structural and earthquake engineering fields at long range and without any retroreflector on the structure.

Lidar
thumb|FASOR, lidar à fluorescence expérimental utilisé pour sonder la densité de la haute atmosphère en excitant les atomes de sodium. La télédétection par laser ou lidar, acronyme de l'expression en langue anglaise « light detection and ranging » ou « laser imaging detection and ranging » (soit en français « détection et estimation de la distance par la lumière » ou « par laser »), est une technique de mesure à distance fondée sur l'analyse des propriétés d'un faisceau de lumière renvoyé vers son émetteur.
Construction parasismique
thumb| La Tokyo Skytree, la deuxième plus grande tour au monde (derrière le Burj Khalifa) qui, du haut de ses , a parfaitement résisté au séisme de 2011 de magnitude 9, démontrant l'efficacité des constructions parasismiques japonaises. La construction parasismique ou construction antisismique est la réalisation de bâtiments et infrastructures résistant aux séismes. Elle implique l'étude du comportement des bâtiments et structures sujets à un chargement dynamique de type sismique.
Structural integrity and failure
Structural integrity and failure is an aspect of engineering that deals with the ability of a structure to support a designed structural load (weight, force, etc.) without breaking and includes the study of past structural failures in order to prevent failures in future designs. Structural integrity is the ability of an item—either a structural component or a structure consisting of many components—to hold together under a load, including its own weight, without breaking or deforming excessively.
