Dynamic Performance and Seismic Analysis of Tied Arch Bridge

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the anti-seismic research achievements of tired arch bridge at home and abroad, taking River City Bridge in Jilin as an example, a finite element model is established for dynamic performance analysis by general finite element software midas civil. Natural vibration characteristics of tied arch bridge are calculated as a basis for further dynamic calculation. Firstly, choose appropriate seismic waves according to the geological data. Then perform the dynamic response analysis of this bridge under different loading cases. Dynamic responses of this bridge under longitudinal and transverse seismic waves are studied respectively, and the influence of vertical seismic wave is also considered. It is shown that the influence on seismic response of vertical seismic waves is very obvious. The vertical seismic waves should be considered while doing seismic design of tied arch bridges.
