2. Harmonised traffic load model between Eurocode 1 - part 2 (EN 1991-2) and TRV specifications : A pilot study on reinforced concrete portal frame bridges
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : The advancement of society has led to an increase in demand for infrastructure, particularly bridges, which are designed in accordance with different design codes. In Sweden, bridge design adheres to the Eurocode and national code (TRV specifications), with the most adverse scenario of the two codes determining the basis for bridge design. READ MORE

3. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

5. A parametric study of the static and dynamic performance of timber arch footbridges with different hanger configurations
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : The influence of the hanger configuration in the arch and deck bending moments under asymmetric loads is widely used nowadays for improved designs of arch bridges. In this work, by means of a parametric study, those hanger configurations that most efficiently increase both the natural frequencies and buckling factors are identified, simultaneously evaluating the dynamic and static performance of timber arch footbridges.
