Analysis of Modern Three-Span Suspension Bridges With Stiff in Bending Cables
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2013 Suspension bridges are one of the most effective bridge structures used for large spans to overlap. Recently, not only the single-span bridges but also multi-span suspension bridges have been used. The main issue of design and analysis shall consider the

Closing the gap towards super-long suspension bridges using computational morphogenesis
Nature Communications, 2020 Girder design for suspension bridges has remained largely unchanged for the past 60 years. Here, the authors present a design resulting in weight savings in excess of 28% while maintaining manufacturability, thus closing the gap towards super-long ...

Non‐linear analysis of suspension bridges with flexible and rigid cables
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2010 One of the main problems related to the design of suspension bridges is stabilisation of their initial form. The tendency of suspension bridges to deform is generally determined by the kinematical displacements of the suspension cable caused by ...

Maximum dynamic stress on bridges traversed by moving loads [PDF]
, 2009 Most current research on dynamic effects due to traffic load on simply supported bridges focuses on the mid-span section of the bridge, since this location corresponds to the worst static bending moment.
