Abstract
The establishment of an effective finite element model for bridge structure is essential in the health monitoring system for Bridge. A new updating method for static model using response surface method is proposed in this paper, and the main procedures are given with an example of a special-shaped bridge. Firstly, the bridge deflection and strain data in designed load case are obtained. Several groups of combined parameters which are chosen based on the principle of uniform design method are selected to conduct calculation through finite element software. Finally through response surface fitting and optimization, the updated bridge finite element model is obtained. The results show that the updated model is approximate to the real bridge and this updating method is rational and practical.
