Research in the Structural Mechanics Section of the Department of Civil Engineering focuses on the static and dynamic analysis of structures. Five related research lines are developed: (1) vibrations in the built environment, (2) vibration based structural identification and evaluation , (3) building acoustics, (4) shape and topology optimization, and (5) computational structural engineering. Model development is supported by laboratory and ...
