Influence of Transient Static and Transient Dynamic Analysis on Deflection of Bridge Slab Using Finite Element Method in ANSYS
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The deflection behavior of bridge slabs is critical for ensuring structural safety and longevity. By using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in ANSYS, engineers can simulate and analyze the effects of both transient static and transient dynamic loads on bridge slabs. This paper explores how these two types of analyses affect the deflection behavior of a bridge slab. We present the mathematical formulations, practical applications, and a case study involving a bridge slab subjected to time-varying loads. The comparative results demonstrate the significant impact that the choice of analysis method has on predicting deflection and ultimately guiding structural design decisions.
