SYMULACJA I MODELOWANIE KOMPUTEROWE DYNAMIKI KONSTRUKCJI MOSTÓW Z WYKORZYSTANIEM ANSYS

This study focuses on utilizing computer modeling and simulation techniques, specifically the ANSYS software, to analyze the dynamics of bridge structures. The primary objective was to study the vibrations of a riverbed metal bridge structure and determine their characteristics. The research involved theoretical dynamic calculations considering the design features of the bridge components and the materials used in their construction. The obtained results enabled the determination of resonance frequencies for the vibration modes. By utilizing the ANSYS software, a three-dimensional virtual model of the bridge structure was created, allowing for a detailed analysis of its dynamic behavior. The first three vibration modes of the riverbed metal bridge structure were calculated, and numerical results were obtained for six modes. The findings of this research have practical significance as they provide informed decision-making support during the construction, maintenance, and modernization of bridge structures. The study of bridge dynamics using advanced technologies contributes to enhancing the safety, reliability, and longevity of these vital infrastructure assets.
