Abstract |
The paper deals with probabilisticanalysis of the largest movable lift bridge of the world. The bridge system consists of six reinforced concrete pylons and two steel decks 4000 tons weight eachconnected through ropes with counterweights. The bridge system is in dynamic mode during movement of the decks and the counterweights, under the action of wind and earthquakes. The real bridge structure has a high level of significance and accordingly not only deterministic calculations were carried out but also stochastic analyses were required. The paper focuses the probabilistic analysis as the base of dynamic study in design process of the bridge.The results had a high importance for practical application and design of the bridge. Index Terms- dynamics of structures, numerical models, deterministic and stochastic analyses. | |||||||||
