Vehicle-bridge dynamic interaction using finite element modelling
Arturo González
- 17 Aug 2010
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the most widely used finite element techniques for modelling road vehicles and bridges, and for implementing the interaction between both types of vehicles and bridge codes.
Evaluation of dynamic loads on a skew box girder continuous bridge Part I: Field test and modal analysis
TL;DR: In this article, a three-axle heavy truck was hired for use in the test to calibrate the field measurements and the static and dynamic bending moments of the tested bridge induced by the calibration truck were obtained.

Parameterized fragility models for multi-bridge classes subjected to hurricane loads
TL;DR: Developing fragility models for individual spans of different bridge classes considering spatial variability of wave loads and variations in structural characteristics and results show that the system failure probability obtained using no correlated span failure assumption is close to the actual failure probability obtaining using the proposed approach.

Calibration of a Congestion Load Model for Highway Bridges Using Traffic Microsimulation
TL;DR: The calibration of a congested traffic load model using traffic microsimulation is presented, and it is found that the calibrated gaps are either similar to, or are larger than, previous work in the area.
