Transport infrastructure structures from the perspective of dynamic analysis of real operating conditions
Project number: 1/0006/20
Responsible researchers: prof. Ing. Jozef Melcer, DrSc.
Project duration: 1.1.2020 – 31.12.2022
Project summary:
There are many real operating conditions of transport structures that can be considered negative from various points of view. These conditions ultimately affect the operational suitability of the structure, its service life, and reliability. The project focuses on the dynamic analysis of these conditions in order to obtain relevant data for assessing issues of fatigue, service life, and reliability of structures, their optimization, and limit effects. It is based on a theoretical analysis of the dynamic interaction of vehicles with the structure in the process of excitation and response. It seeks optimal models that capture the physical essence of the phenomena. The mathematical apparatus solves numerically. It seeks suitable solution methods, creates its own algorithms and software products. It comprehensively assesses the proposed procedures in terms of convergence, stability, solution accuracy, suitability of use, and environmental relations. It uses experimental methods to verify the results of theoretical and numerical analysis. It generalizes the results for further development of science and practice.
