Deflection Monitoring of the Forth Road Bridge by GPS

Researchers at the IESSG at the University of Nottingham, in conjunction with colleagues from Brunel University, have carried out deflection monitoring work on structures, notably bridges, for a decade. Initial work was carried out 101 ION GNSS 18th International Technical Meeting of the Satellite Division, 13-16 September 2005, Long Beach, CA on the Humber Bridge, London’s Millennium Bridge an...

Dynamic characteristic of the forth road bridge estimated with GeoSHM

The importance of bridge health monitoring and management has been recognized by authorities of long-span bridges throughout the world in recent years. The GeoSHM consortium, led by the University of Nottingham, was awarded a Feasibility Study (FS) grant in 2013 by the European Space Agency (ESA) to investigate how to use integrated GNSS and Earth Observation technologies for the structural hea...

A Critical Analysis of the Forth Road Bridge, Queensferry, Scotland

This conference paper presents a critical analysis of the Forth Road Bridge, addressing factors such as aesthetics, strength, construction methods and geotechnical design, in addition to discussing the bridge’s durability issues and future. Loading and strength analyses are carried out to BS5400-2, issued in 2006, providing a pertinent consideration of the impact of the increased vehicle loads ...

Stack Caching in Forth

Stack caching speeds Forth up by keeping stack items in registers, reducing the number of memory accesses for stack items. This paper describes our work on extending Gforth’s stack caching implementation to support more than one register in the canonical state, and presents timing results for the resulting Forth system. For single-representation stack caches, keeping just one stack item in regi...
