Abstract
Abstract The paper presents the method and results of numerical simulations of the mutual dynamic interactions between vehicles and the bridge structure, which has defect in the form of excessive permanent deformations. The parametric analyses were carried out taking into account the following parameters: permanent deflections of spans, with a maximum value ranging from 0 to 150 mm, vehicle speed from 10 m/s (36 km/h) to 30 m/s (108 km/h), and two types of heavy vehicle suspension systems, each with very different properties. The presented analyses are based on the characteristics of real motorway bridge structure with permanent deflections of the multi-span main girders, constructed of steel beams and reinforced concrete slab. The proposed procedure of dynamic numerical analysis can also be useful in the assessment of the influence of permanent deflections on the interactions between vehicles and other types of bridge structures.
期刊介绍:
An international journal ‘Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica’ covers new developments in the broad areas of geomechanics as well as structural mechanics. The journal welcomes contributions dealing with original theoretical, numerical as well as experimental work. The following topics are of special interest: Constitutive relations for geomaterials (soils, rocks, concrete, etc.) Modeling of mechanical behaviour of heterogeneous materials at different scales Analysis of coupled thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical problems Modeling of instabilities and localized deformation Experimental investigations of material properties at different scales Numerical algorithms: formulation and performance Application of numerical techniques to analysis of problems involving foundations, underground structures, slopes and embankment Risk and reliability analysis Analysis of concrete and masonry structures Modeling of case histories
