“…An accurate analysis of these complex structures is extremely challenging. In order to simplify the analysis, some researchers try to idealize the complex bridge deck structures into a simple structural system such as grillage, equivalent orthotropic plate and some other form [1][2][3] but the solution accuracy is affected with these simplifications which may not be acceptable for a reliable design of these structures. A satisfactory result can be obtained by using a detailed finite element modelling [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] of these curved structures but this is not feasible in a design office, specifically, for a preliminary design of these structures.…”

“…Empirical expressions were deduced from results generated from experiments and by using finite element methods to evaluate the fundamental frequency for such bridges. Hajjar, Krzmarzick and Pallarés (2010) presented dynamic impact factors obtained in the field study of a curved composite I-girder bridge, which were slightly higher than the code-specified values.…”

“…Huang (2008b) put forward the results of field tests, stating that current AASHTO guide specifications regarding the first transverse stiffener spacing at the simple end support of a curved girder may be too conservative for bridge load capacity ratings; moreover, current specifications may greatly overestimate the dynamic loadings of curved box girder bridges with long span lengths. Hajjar et al (2010) presented load testing results of a multi-span, horizontally curved composite steel I-girder bridge in Duluth, Minnesota. Stresses up to 75% of the girder yield stress were obtained in the bridge, and behavior is described in the girders, diaphragms, lateral wind bracing, deck, bearings, and fatigue details.…”

“…Proračun se može provesti uz pomoć pojednostavnjenih analitičkih metoda ili se konstrukcija zamjenjuje proračunskim roštiljnim numeričkim modelom za proračun na računalu [5]. Iako suvremene konfiguracije računala omogućuju izradu proračunskih modela korištenjem štapnih, pločastih i prostornih elemenata ili njihovom kombinacijom, jednostavni roštiljni modeli sastavljeni od štapnih konačnih elemenata nisu izgubili svoje mjesto u inženjerskoj primjeni [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Jednostavne roštiljne modele karakterizira brzina i lakoća modeliranja te jednostavnost interpretacije rezultata, zadovoljavajuća točnost u usporedbi s rezultatima ispitivanja i rezultatima složenijih modela, kao i neovisnost o snažnim računalima [9,10,14,15].…”
