Ph.D. Natividad García Troncoso, coordinator of the Master's Degree in Earthquake-Resistant Civil Structures, participated as a guest speaker in the CEINCI LAB Conference Cycle on March 2, in a session focused on technical and scientific exchange in the field of structural engineering. During her presentation, she gave a lecture entitled “Vibration control in beam and cable-stayed pedestrian bridges through the use of tuned mass dampers,” in which she discussed advanced strategies for optimizing the dynamic performance and structural safety of this type of infrastructure.
Applied research for safer structures
The presentation included research results and practical applications related to dynamic analysis and the implementation of tuned mass dampers (TMDs), devices that mitigate vibrations induced by pedestrian or environmental loads, improving comfort and structural integrity.This space promoted dialogue between researchers, professionals, and students, strengthening academic collaboration and the transfer of specialized knowledge in the area of structural control.
Commitment to quality and innovation
Participation in this type of event reaffirms the institutional commitment to quality education, applied research, and strategic links with research centers and specialized laboratories.
