Velocity profiles and pressure distributions are reported for turbulent flow under tilted pads in a large scale bearing model (6-ft shaft size, with air as the working fluid). Results are extended analytically to other bearing sizes and aspect ratios.

The present work presents an experimental study in which resonant surface oscillations inside a lateral cavity are reconstructed, often denoted as se- iching, which are excited by a shallow main stream flowing past the horizontal basin. Firstly, the flow configurations that trigger transverse and/or longitu- dinal seiching are studied using pressure measurements in the corners of the cavity, which shows that a transitional Froude number exists, approximately 0.63, at which the dominant seiching mode changes from transverse to longi- tudinal seiching. For both types of resonant conditions, the surface shape is analyzed in detail using a three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry (3D- PTV) setup. Based upon floating seeding particles, the 3D surface is recon- structed with a superior spatial resolution compared to traditional measurement techniques, which confirms the multimodal aspect of the surface oscillations.

Recent advances in computer vision techniques allow to obtain information on the dynamic behaviour of structures using commercial grade video recording devices. The advantage of such schemes lies in the non-invasive nature of video recording and the ability to extract information at a high spatial density utilizing structural features. This creates an advantage over conventional contact sensors since constraints such as cabling and maximum channel availability are alleviated. In this study, two such schemes are explored, namely Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PTV) and the optical flow algorithm. Both are validated against conventional sensors for a lab-scale shear frame and compared. In cases of imperceptible motion, the recently proposed Phase-based Motion Magnification (PBMM) technique is employed to obtain modal information within frequency bands of interest and further used for modal analysis. The optical flow scheme combined with (PBMM) is further tested on a large-scale post-tensioned concrete beam and validated against conventional measurements, as a transition from lab- to outdoor field applications.
