Objetivo 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 Ámbito científico engineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringelectronic engineeringcontrol systemsnatural sciencesearth and related environmental sciencesgeologyseismologyengineering and technologycivil engineeringstructural engineeringearthquake engineering Programa(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) Tema(s) 1.4.1.-2. - Access to Research Infrastructures Convocatoria de propuestas Data not available Régimen de financiación LFC - Access to Research Infrastructures Coordinador UNIVERSITY OF BRISTOL Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección University Walk, Queen's Building BS8 1TR BRISTOL, CLIFTON Reino Unido Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos
