Development of Pararell Pseudo-dynamic Testing System using Internet

Abstract

With improved Internet all over the world, it has become popular to share the information with other computers through it. Consequently, in order to understand the dynamic response behavior of structures considering interaction between structural members experimentally, a pseudo dynamic parallel testing system using Internet is developed. And applicability of this developed system is discussed based on the results of a simulated elevated bridge system, consisting of two piers and one girder.
