Finite Element Modelling and Link Element Analysis for Load Behaviour in Elastomeric Bearings: An Approach to Satisfy Design Check

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: : The focus of this study is on the finite element modelling (FEM) and link element analysis of elastomeric bearings to evaluate load behaviour and ensure compliance with design standards. A detailed FEM was developed, incorporating material properties and boundary conditions to simulate the load transfer mechanisms that were provided through link element analysis. The results were validated against design codes and input data from analysis software data, confirming the model’s accuracy. A reliable method for optimizing elastomeric bearing design, improving structural safety, and satisfying critical design checks has presented. Total 10 Models taken with its variations and design checks applied over the same with the conclusion of whether it would be suitable or not aiming to improve design practices and address the challenges of modern bridge engineering.
