Professor John Macdonald was Professor of Structural Dynamics in the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Bristol and an internationally recognised expert on the vibrations of long span bridges due to wind and pedestrian loading. He used Clifton Suspension Bridge as a test bed to develop his research into smart monitoring of bridge behaviour as a basis for optimising design configurations and bridge management.
