Cable-Stayed Bridge Elements Lifetime Optimization Model
18th IABSE Congress „Innovative Infrastructures - Toward Human Urbanism" 2012
Verners Straupe, Ainārs Paeglītis

Authors of this paper are working on the analytically obtained mathematical model of interaction between elements of cable-stayed bridges. The influence of systems geometry, mechanical and physical parameters of cables, pylons and stiffening girder on the behaviour of all structure is observed. Some results and useful recommendations about optimal solution from economical and technical point of view are presented. A way to improve the fatigue conditions of the cable-stayed bridge is installation of active devices, which in an exact moment can decrease deformations and stresses from elements with poor load bearing capacity by giving them away to the others with higher capacity. Properties of such a system can be examined by the proposed method.
