Subsequently, combining this with deflection theory will demonstrate the existence of this phase during the lifting process. bridges finite-element modelling girders lower chord opening size secondary dead load...

... model updating. Dynamic tests are conducted using a test train, composed of six-axle locomotives and four-axle freight wagons, which travels across the bridge; the vibration response of the instrumented bridge is subsequently measured. A high-fidelity three-dimensional finite-element model of the bridge...

... objective of this work was to explore and report the environmental and operational conditions of the bridge for the first time. A detailed finite-element model was developed to investigate the operational performance of the bridge under different environmental conditions. The results showed...

... of the structural response. To investigate the accuracy of these curvature limitations, a series of horizontally curved composite steel box girder bridges were analysed using finite-element modelling. The key parameters considered in this study were the degree of curvature and bridge span, width and continuity...

... construction technique, the top chord members of the bridge were replaced with concrete-filled steel box sections and the bottom girders, diagonals and cross-girders (tension members) were replaced with hollow steel box sections. To analyse these replacements, a finite-element model was created and validated...
