Editorial for the special issue on Urban Vibrations & Their Effects Upon Built Heritage: Measurements, Characterization, & Simulations
Description:
The numerous sources of vibration that can be recorded in the urban environment both at
ground or at the top level of buildings represent a complex and largely unexplored field, whose
interpretation could provide valuable information about the buildings’ structural behavior. Urban
vibrations may excite constructions in many different ways, generating discomfort, structural
damage, and fatigue-related issues affecting their structural health. The characterization of such
urban vibrations, and their use for dynamic identification and structural health monitoring,
launched an emerging, new cross-disciplinary field known as urban seismology, which engages
seismologists, structural engineers, and numerical analysts. The research contributions collected in
this special issue deal with this emerging topic.
