Pseudodynamic Method for Seismic Testing
TL;DR: The pseudodynamic method as discussed by the authors is a relatively new experimental technique for evaluating the seismic performance of structural models in a laboratory by means of on-line computer controlled testing, during such a test, the displacement response of a structure to a specified dynamic excitation is numerically computed and quasi-statically imposed on the structure, based on analytically prescribed inertia and viscous damping characteristics for the structure and the experimentally measured structural restoring forces.

Adaptive vision-based crack detection using 3D scene reconstruction for condition assessment of structures
TL;DR: A vision-based crack detection methodology is introduced that extracts the whole crack from its background, where the regular edge-based approaches just segment the crack edges, appropriate for the development of a crack thickness quantification system.
