Download or read book Finite Element Analysis and Design of Steel and Steel–Concrete Composite Bridges written by Ehab Ellobody. This book was released on 2023-01-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of Finite Element Analysis and Design of Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite Bridges is brought fully up-to-date and provides structural engineers, academics, practitioners, and researchers with a detailed, robust, and comprehensive combined finite modeling and design approach. The book's eight chapters begin with an overview of the various forms of modern steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, current design codes (American, British, and Eurocodes), nonlinear material behavior of the bridge components, and applied loads and stability of steel and steel-concrete composite bridges. This is followed by self-contained chapters concerning design examples of steel and steel-concrete composite bridge components as well as finite element modeling of the bridges and their components. The final chapter focuses on finite element analysis and the design of composite highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting. This volume will serve as a valuable reference source addressing the issues, problems, challenges, and questions on how to enhance the design of steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, including highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting, using finite element modeling techniques. - Provides all necessary information to understand relevant terminologies and finite element modeling for steel and composite bridges - Discusses new designs and materials used in highway and railway bridge - Illustrates how to relate the design guidelines and finite element modeling based on internal forces and nominal stresses - Explains what should be the consistent approach when developing nonlinear finite element analysis for steel and composite bridges - Contains extensive case studies on combining finite element analysis with design for steel and steel-concrete composite bridges, including highway bridges with profiled steel sheeting
