Analysis of bridge structures excited by moveable load

Ivana Štimac, Darko Meštrović, Ivica Kožar

Abstract

An extended version of the software package "Okvirw" is presented in the paper. The initial software package was extended by adding a direct linear extrapolation algorithm with an average acceleration, which enabled dynamic analysis of random two-dimensional structures subjected to moveable load. This software package was used for analyzing effects of dynamic load on the viaduct forming part of the Čakovec interchange. Results obtained with the software package correspond well with results of dynamic measurements conducted on this structure.

Keywords
