Abstract
Suspension bridge is a flexible structure. The weight, location and number of traffic on the bridge will affect the geometric alignment of the bridge. Although the finite element software can analyze the geometric nonlinearity of the bridge, the calculation of random load combination in finite element software is huge. In this paper, based on the deformation coordination, static equilibrium and constitutive model of the bridge, the force expression considering the geometric nonlinearity of the bridge is derived. Finite element software is used to simulate the internal force of components of suspension bridge under train load and vehicle load. The accuracy is verified by comparing the finite element results. Considering the random number of traffics, the random location of traffics, and the random weight of traffics, this paper analyzes the stress state of bridge under the random process of train load and vehicle load respectively. The method in this paper can be well used to analyze the actual stress state of the bridge, and provide a theoretical basis for related calculations.
