Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The London Millennium Footbridge is located across the Thames River in Central London. At its opening on June 10, 2000, the bridge experienced pedestrian-induced lateral vibration. Observations on the day of opening and studies of video footage revealed up to 50 mm of lateral movement of the south span and 70 mm of the center span. The north span did not move substantially. The bridge was closed on June 12, 2000, pending an investigation into the cause of the unexpected lateral movements. This paper highlights the phenomenon of pedestrian-induced lateral vibration on footbridges and the current state of knowledge of the lateral loading effect. Modification of the bridge, introducing extensive passive damping, is currently underway with completion scheduled for the end of 2001.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
