Many authors, using both experimental tests and complex numerical models, have examined the effect of vehicle velocity on a highway bridge’s dynamic amplification. Although these tests and models give valuable quantitative ...
The effect of multiple vehicles on a bridge’s dynamic amplification is a complex problem. Previously authors have examined multiple vehicle presence by constructing elaborate finite element models or undertaking field ...
Bridge Weigh-In-Motion (B-WIM) is a process by which the axle and gross vehicle weights of vehicles travelling at highway speeds can be determined from instrumented bridges. The traditional method of attaching strain ...
The paper considers the influence of the surface profile on the dynamic amplification of a simply supported bridge when subject to a quarter car vehicle model. The effect of the profile irregularities on the bridge dynamic ...
The concept of a road roughness index for bridge dynamics is developed. The International Roughness Index (IRI) is shown to be very poorly correlated with bridge dynamic amplification as it takes no account of the location ...
