3. 2. Analysis of traffic load effects an railway bridges

   Författare :Gerard James; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :bridge; rail; traffic load. Load effect. Dynamic amplification factor; extreme value theor; peaks-over-threshold;

   Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis studies the load and loadeffects of traffic loads on railway bridges. The increasedknowledge of the traffic loads, simulated using fieldmeasurements of actual trains, are employed in a reliabilityanalysis in an attempt at upgrading existing railwaybridges. LÄS MER
