Dynamic assessment of the Malaysia Square Pedestrian Bridge, Battersea Power Station transformation

In this article, Artur Soczawa-Stronczyk discusses his work on a project to assess the dynamic characteristics of the Malaysia Square Pedestrian Bridge – a structure built as part of the transformation of the former Battersea Power Station site in London. The project drew on Artur's MSc and doctoral research into pedestrian-induced vibration to establish that additional damping measures were not required for the bridge. The case study was highly commended in the IStructE's 2022 Research into Practice Case Study competition.
