Summary

The dynamic behavior of bridges strongly affects the infrastructure system of high-speed railways, and is a crucial factor in safety issues and passenger comfort. Dynamics of High-Speed Railway Bridgescovers the latest research in this field, including: recently developed dynamic analysis techniques; train excitations; design issues for high-speed railway bridges; fatigue conduct of viaducts and large span bridges; and bridge dynamic behavior. It also includes case studies that illustrate the concepts presented. The book will be invaluable to professionals, scientists, public institutions, and students involved in the design, construction and maintenance of high-speed railway bridges.
