Progress and demands of all types of constructions imposed the need for the development of modernstructures that are lightweight, but at the same time have high damping capacity and stiffness. Theconsequences of these requirements are increased dynamic problems related to vibrations anddissipative processes in structure connection joints. Structura...

This paper presents a dynamic behavior analysis of an old cable-stayed footbridge over river Vrbasin Banja Luka. Identification of modal parameters, of this prone to vibrations footbridge structure,was performed using Operational Modal Analysis with Frequency Domain Decomposition method.Experimental test setups and obtained results, compared to the...

Problems involving contact are of great importance in industry related to mechanical and civilengineering, but also in biomechanics and other applications. The contact interaction betweensurfaces and different bodies like in a bolted splice connection joint or area in which a tire interactswith the soil is not known a priori, leading to a nonlinear...
