  1. 21. FE analysis of weld stresses in composite bridges : A case study of the influence of the cross bracings

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Andreas Sjölander; [2012]
    Keywords : Weld stresses; composite bridges; cross bracings; web stiffeners;

    Abstract : Composite bridges in Sweden are commonly designed as a twin I-girder section. To stablizie the bridge during launching and concreting horizontal cross bracings are used. These are normally connected to a transverse web stiffener that is welded with a throat size of 5 mm regardless of the dimensions of the bridge. READ MORE

  2. 22. Measurement evaluation and FEM simulation of bridge dynamics

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Andreas Andersson; Richard Malm; [2004]
    Keywords : Engineering design; dynamic; railway; finite element analysis; vibration; measurement; frequency; fatigue; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to analyse the effects of train induced vibrations in a steel Langer beam bridge. A case study of a bridge over the river Ljungan in Ånge has been made by analysing measurements and comparing the results with a finite element model in ABAQUS. READ MORE
