- The ability for simultaneous capture of pedestrian forces and their location in real-life settings has been the “holy grail” in research on: (i) biomechanics; (ii) human movement science; (iii) vibration serviceability. The first ever methodology is presented allowing this task to be accomplished, thus opening opportunities for: (i) transition from clinical to ecological approach for investigating risk of fall; (ii) development of a new class of pedestrian structural loading models. A new collaboration with Prof Igor Belykh at Georgia State University, holder of the main USA grants on collective pedestrian behaviour and bridge stability, was established (NSF grant DMS-1616345; ibelykh@gsu.edu).
