Solving structural vibration issues
Publicaciones
-
A structure subjected to vibrational stresses can exhibit unexpected behaviour and may suffer rapid damage. For instance, some members far from the source of vibration may begin to vibrate significantly, a phenomenon known as resonance. When the vibration frequency of an external influence approaches the resonant frequency of the system under study—determined by the system's properties—it can lead to substantial displacements and even catastrophic structural failure.

24 nov 2022''I’m a very analytical person, but I also listen to my instincts a lot, and by trusting myself, I’ve been able to make the important decisions that have shaped my career. If I think something’s wrong, I stop, ask questions and sometimes, take a step back so I can start again... just like in innovation! If, on the other hand, I feel good about it, I go for it. So far, it’s served me well!Ingenious women – Mélanie Chouinard-

28 feb 2022Energía eléctrica y renovablesAnalyzing discontinuities in the rock mass is important when evaluating rock slope stability. Conventional methods for collecting joint data, such as field joint study, window mapping and scanline mapping, are time-consuming and labour-intensive when studying joint sets, fault zones and rock mass classification. It’s even more challenging when there is limited access. The photogrammetry method has been widely used in constructing digital terrain models and rock slope characterization in the past decade and offers a fast and inexpensive way over other remote sensing methods and approaches, such as LiDAR and 3D laser scanning.Application of photogrammetry on rock slope characterization

21 ene 2022Energía eléctrica y renovablesAs demonstrated by the recent spate of software compromises, exploits and vulnerabilities (e.g., Solarwinds Orion, Colonial Pipeline and Apache Log4j), along with the integration or convergence between corporate information technology (IT), and industrial control system (ICS) and operational technology (OT) systems, more and more frequently, a software compromise or cyber attack impacts not just a single IT or ICS/OT software system, but directly or indirectly affects cross-functional operations, including cyberphysical processes. In a previous blog article,1 we laid out some fundamental topics to consider when developing an ICS and OT cybersecurity incident response plan. In this article, we’ll go deeper and explore an approach to integrate our cybersecurity incident response into organizational all-hazard and inter-agency response processes. We’ll be exploring the use of the Incident Command System for responding to ICS cybersecurity incidents.Managing ICS cybersecurity incident response: going beyond containment, eradication and recovery
