Bridges & Civil Nonlinearities Solution - Moving Load Generator
Moving load generator
Automatically generates the required loadsteps for one or more vehicles moving throughout the bridge deck taking into account:
- Vehicle type: Rigid or flexible (vehicle which adapts to the path -trains-).
- Number of vehicles crossing the bridge simultaneously. The vehicles can be
of different types (different number of wheels, axis, weight, etc).
- Vertical
and horizontal loads (starting and breaking loads).
Data base of standard
design codes vehicle loads (Caltrans, AASHTO, High-speed trains, etc.) and
possibility of defining any generic vehicle with its corresponding load pattern.
Loads are automatically combined during postprocessing using the smart
combination tool of CivilFEM.
Heavy vehicles according to different codes
Rigid and adaptable to the trajectory vehicles
