Numerical Analysis for Dynamic Response of Railway Plate Girder Bridges according to Types of Train

판형교의 열차유형별 동적응답에 대한 수치해석

In this study, railway plate girder bridges are modeled in detail for finite elements within 3-dimension and analyzed by SAP 2000N, a commercial finite element analysis tool. Especially, loads of trains gained by statistical averages of measured true loads of trains are used for analysis. When the loads are adapted, the numerical dynamic responses are very close to real measurements. Resonant speed areas by train types are evaluated from the results of numerical analyses by different driving speeds of trains. For dynamic numerical analysis of railway bridges, reasonable guides are also discussed.
