Objectif The Installation consists of a 3 x 3m, 6-axis shaking table and ancillary facilities for experimental studies in earthquake engineering and structural dynamics. The operating range is 0-100 Hz and the maximum payload is 15 tonnes. The recently upgraded control system allows high- fidelity input signals to be applied to the test-piece, its active feedback control in real-time allowing studies to be made of non-linear behaviour.Application:Access is offered under the contract to researchers from Member and Associated States who wish to familiarise themselves with advanced experimental techniques. The Bristol shaking table joins with 3 other similar European facilities in offering access to shaking tables and a reaction-wall. A cost of living allowance is paid in addition to the free access. A call for proposals appears every 6 months in the Journal for Earthquake Engineering and structural.Project Manager:Roy Severn, Civil Engineering - Earthquake Engineering Research Centre (EERC), Queen's Building, University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, United KingdomTel: +44-117-9287708Fax: +44-117-9287783E-Mail: R.T.Severn@bristol.ac.uk Champ scientifique engineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringelectronic engineeringcontrol systemsnatural sciencesearth and related environmental sciencesgeologyseismologyengineering and technologycivil engineeringstructural engineeringearthquake engineering Programme(s) FP5-HUMAN POTENTIAL - Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Improving the human research potential and the socio-economic knowledge base" (1998-2002) Thème(s) 1.4.1.-2. - Access to Research Infrastructures Appel à propositions Data not available Régime de financement LFC - Access to Research Infrastructures Coordinateur UNIVERSITY OF BRISTOL Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse University Walk, Queen's Building BS8 1TR BRISTOL, CLIFTON Royaume-Uni Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée
