Structures for precision scientific applications leave no room for design errors.

ASDEA has carried out advanced structural analyses on infrastructures where the structural response is not just a safety requirement, but part of the performance of the scientific instrument itself. In these structures, vibrations, accelerations, frequency content, seismic amplification and dynamic interaction can directly affect the quality of the data being collected.

This is not ordinary civil engineering. It is engineering in the service of science.

STKO’s nonlinear methods, advanced dynamic analysis capabilities and high-fidelity modelling approach make the difference when even small changes in structural response can influence the behaviour of highly sensitive equipment.

The visuals above show real projects ASDEA has worked on, a glimpse into the kind of infrastructure where structural engineering meets cutting-edge science.

ELT – Extremely Large Telescope
The ELT will be the largest optical/near-infrared telescope in the world. For this exceptional infrastructure, ASDEA worked on the seismic hazard definition, site-specific seismic amplification and the study of the three-dimensional seismic isolation system of the telescope structure, including both horizontal and vertical components of the seismic response.

Flyeye Telescope
The Flyeye Telescope is an innovative wide-field telescope developed by ESA for near-Earth object detection. ASDEA performed a linear dynamic analysis for OHB Italia to assess the acceleration levels acting on the telescope, with particular attention to its sensitive optical components. ASDEA also designed the telescope’s base structure to prevent its natural frequencies from interfering with the telescope’s dynamic response during a seismic event.

Cherenkov Telescope Array infrastructure
The Cherenkov Telescope Array is the largest array of telescopes in the world dedicated to very-high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. It detects the faint flashes of Cherenkov light produced when gamma rays interact with the Earth’s atmosphere, making structural stability, seismic performance and pointing accuracy essential for the quality of the scientific data. ASDEA contributed to the definition of the design spectra, seismic amplification analyses and accelerogram selection for dynamic assessment.

These are the types of projects where advanced structural engineering becomes part of the scientific instrument itself.

A common misconception in nonlinear hashtag : applying loads and controlling displacements are not interchangeable.

They follow the same equilibrium path only up to the first peak. Beyond that point, the analysis strategy determines whether the response can be traced or not.

𝗟𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹: the load factor is prescribed and displacements result from the structure's ability to sustain the applied forces. At a limit point, no equilibrium may exist for a higher load, causing the analysis to fail and the post-peak response to be missed.

𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹: one or more response quantities are used to drive the analysis. This allows the equilibrium path to be followed beyond the peak and into the softening regime, where load control typically cannot proceed.

𝗔𝗿𝗰-𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱𝘀 (𝗥𝗶𝗸𝘀, 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱): the solution increment follows the equilibrium path itself, enabling the analysis of snap-through and snap-back behavior as well.

The rule is simple: choose the control strategy based on the instability mechanism you expect, not on habit.

FRP rebar has crossed the line from research topic to everyday design practice. What's been missing are the tools engineers need to actually work with it, so we decided to build them.

Together with the European Rebar Council, we're developing a section verification software for FRP-reinforced concrete: a web application that lets you run code-compliant ULS and SLS checks in minutes, without leaving your workflow. The material has moved on, and the way we design with it should move with it.

The Standard version is free and covers what you need to get started: section and reinforcement definition, and ULS and SLS bending moment results. The Premium tier goes further, with complete shear and confinement checks, DXF import for any geometry, and a space where FRP suppliers can put their products in front of the engineers actually specifying them.

We're launching in 2026, with ETABS, SAP2000 and MIDAS integration already on the roadmap.

We'll also be presenting it at 17th International Symposium on Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures in Girona, 6 to 8 July.

If you're going, come find us, or just write to us at [email protected].

Some engineering firms publish. We were born publishing.

We have contributed with over 160 scientific papers across peer-reviewed journals, books and international conferences. For us this is not academic marketing. It is the foundation of how we do engineering.

Scientific research enables us to develop fundamental knowledge and transfer it concretely into industry, turning new insights into advanced methods and tools that solve real structural problems.

In a sector where trust is built on competence and the ability to innovate, published research is the most transparent form of credibility.

A structure vibrates. Always.

These vibrations carry valuable information about its structural health, if you know how to read them.

Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) is the technique that allows you to extract this information without artificially exciting the structure.

Ambient vibrations are measured, processed through specific algorithms, and the output is natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping coefficients. If these parameters change over time, damage has begun.

These modal parameters are the experimental fingerprint of the structure, the only reliable input to continuously recalibrate a finite element model and keep a digital twin alive. Without OMA, a digital twin is just a model frozen at design stage.

Have you ever applied OMA on a structure? What was the most challenging part? Let us know in the comments.

We apply this on towers, bridges, historic buildings, industrial infrastructure.

Strain-softening materials, such as concrete, make a standard finite element model mesh-dependent: as the mesh is refined, the localization band narrows, the dissipated energy decreases, and the computed response does not converge.

This 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗕𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗥 reviews the problem and the techniques used to recover mesh-objective results:

• The origin of the pathology: strain localization and loss of ellipticity in a local continuum;
• An overview of regularization methods (nonlocal, gradient-enhanced, micropolar, higher-order continua, and fracture-energy regularization) and their implementation cost in general-purpose finite element codes;
• The fracture-energy (crack-band) approach as implemented in OpenSees with ASDConcrete, including the role of the element characteristic length and its limitations;
• A mesh-refinement study showing convergence of the load–displacement response for different element types.

The implementation is available in the public OpenSees repository.
