RISDynamic Simulation of a Long-Span Bridge-Traffic System Subjected to Combined Service and Extreme Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Long-span bridges support busy traffic and experience considerable wind loads on the bridge decks nearly every day. In addition to these two major service loads, some extreme loads such as earthquake, vehicle collision, ...
Framework of Nonlinear Dynamic Simulation of Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridge and Traffic System Subjected to Cable-Loss Incidents
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cable loss is a critical extreme event for cable-supported bridges, which sometimes governs the bridge design. Like most extreme events possibly occurring on long-span bridges, cable loss (breakage) may happen with service ...

Abstract: Cable loss is a critical extreme event for cable-supported bridges, which sometimes governs the bridge design. Like most extreme events possibly occurring on long-span bridges, cable loss (breakage) may happen with service ...
Time-Progressive Dynamic Assessment of Abrupt Cable-Breakage Events on Cable-Stayed Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although long-span bridges are usually designed with sufficient structural redundancy, particular concerns arise about the abrupt breakage of bridge cables, which may cause progressive failure such as zipper-like collapse. ...
Investigation of the Live-Load Effects on Long-Span Bridges under Traffic Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Different from short-span girder bridges, long-span bridges support a large amount of traffic, which significantly influences the dynamic performance of the bridge. The design live load on long-span bridges has seldom been ...
Iterative Nonlinear Cable Shape and Force Finding Technique of Suspension Bridges Using Elastic Catenary Configuration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is important from the safety and economical perspectives that a suspension bridge should have minimal deformation under the self-weight of the bridge while the tension forces of the main cable and hangers remain at the ...
Full-Response Prediction of Coupled Long-Span Bridges and Traffic Systems under Spatially Varying Seismic Excitations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A long-span bridge supports a large number of vehicles, which are usually present when an earthquake strikes the bridge site due to the low predictability of earthquake events. Existing seismic analyses of long-span bridges ...
Iterative Nonlinear Cable Shape and Force Finding Technique of Suspension Bridges Using Elastic Catenary Configuration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is important from the safety and economical perspectives that a suspension bridge should have minimal deformation under the self-weight of the bridge while the tension forces of the main cable and hangers remain at the ...
Numerical Simulations of Seasonal Variations of Rainfall over the Island of Hawaii
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe seasonal variations of rainfall over the island of Hawaii are studied using the archives of the daily model run from the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) from June 2004 ...
