The purpose of this paper is aimed at according to the "highway reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete bridge and culvert design specifications (JTG D62-2004) and (JTJ 023-85) design of jacking construction of continuous girder bridge for reliability analysis. By establishing a finite element model of construction stage and into a bridge stage respectively the reliability index of the typical cross section is analyzed. Aiming at construction stage, by choosing typical cross section of reliability analysis, draw a cross section of reliability index with the change of construction stage. Calculation results show that, according to JTG D62-2004 specification of reliability index calculation results than based on results of calculating the JTJ 023-85 specification. In this paper, the analysis results can provide reference for pushing the construction of the continuous girder bridge design.

In this study, the finite element method (FEM) is used to investigate the dynamic response of continuous girder bridge due to moving three-axle vehicle . Vertical reaction forces of axles that change with time make bending vibration of girder significantly  increase. The braking in the first span is able to create response in other spans. In addition, the dynamic impact factors are investigated by both FEM and experiment for Hoa Xuan bridge. The results of this study provide an improved understanding of the bridge dynamic behavior and can be used as additional references for bridge codes by practicing engineers.

This article simulates prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge reinforced many times and evaluates carrying capacity after reinforcement. Taking the FuFeng bridge for an example, we analyze the bridge’s stress state in using by Midas software, evaluate the concrete ability of crack resistance, check the reinforced concrete structure ultimate carrying capacity, the cracking resistance and the stiffness, assess reinforcement effect and verify the accuracy and reliability of the simulation results. The maximum main compressive stress, maximum compressive stress, maximal main tensile stress and maximum tension stress of mid-span cross-section of the bridge are 1.6Mpa, 1.6Mpa, 0.3~0.5Mpa, and -1.2Mpa respectively, the mid-span center cross-section of deflection is 2.89cm. Reinforcement suppresses the development and expansion of the crack; the mid-span deflection tends to stabilize; the ultimate bearing capacity meets the Standard requirement basically; the emergency capacity is not enough; and the car whose weight over 55 tons is prohibited from passing.

Initial errors and mesh distortions are inevitable in the modelling of folded space inflatable structures. Aimed at this key technical problem, an initial stress correction method based on finite element theory is proposed in this paper. First, initial stress is calculated through the difference of mapping and reference configurations, the former with initial errors and the later without. Then the initial stress is imposed on the mapping configuration to correct initial errors. Through the correction, the accuracy of the inflation deployment numerical calculation is greatly improved. In order to validate the reliability of this correction method, a typical space inflatable structure-inflatable tube is studied as an example. First of all, the finite element models of both Z-folded and rolled tubes are established with the initial stress correction method. Then the inflation deployment numerical calculations of the folded tubes are carried out applying the segmented inflatable control volume method. Through comparative analysis of the calculation results with and without a correction, the method proposed in this paper is proved to be feasible and accurate. The correction method is a complement to the modelling of folded space inflatable structures and it has a great significance for the improvement of the accuracy of the inflation deployment numerical calculations of space inflatable structures.

The reasons why the producing of the difference in temperature distributing and thermal stresses of box aqueduct under solar radiation are analyzed. The difference in temperature distributing and thermal stresses are effectively simulated by the finite element software ANSYS.The calculation results indicate that concrete box aqueduct body inter-surface whatever along the longitudinal and transverse will produce considerable thermal stresses under solar radiation, and its value has exceeded the design of concrete tensile strength. Therefore, the thermal stresses under the solar radiation must be considered in the design of box aqueduct body structural. We should appropriately configure temperature reinforcing steel bar.

When the cantilever construction is adopted by the prestressed concrete continuous girder bridge, the order of two key procedures between removing temporary support and tensing remanent prestressed cable is used to be ignored. In order to study the influence of procedure inversion, the influences on bridge shape, stress distribution and prestressing loss were calculated for one common prestressed continuous concrete box girder bridge by MIDAS CIVIL 2006, respectively. The obtained result presents that: the influence on the bridge shape and the prestressing loss are not apparent, but the influence on the stress distribution is serious; the maximal compressive stress of procedure inversion is more 42.3% than common construction procedure only by tensing the remaining steel beams at box girder; especially, the combining area between the box girder and temporary support is easy to pull out. So, the procedure inversion construction method cant be accepted.

A fibre-finite-element model of continuous prestressed concrete (PC) composite box girder with corrugated steel webs is established with force-based elements using OpenSees. After the model is validated with existing experimental data, the effects of reinforcement index in upper and lower flanges, effective prestress and concrete strength on the moment redistribution behaviour is analysed. It is shown that increasing the reinforcement index in lower flange or effective prestress can increase the amount of bending moment redistribution, whereas increasing the concrete strength or reinforcement index in upper flange can decrease the amount of bending moment redistribution. By inspecting the sensitivity of parameters, it is found that the reinforcement index in lower flange has the most significant influence on the moment redistribution, followed by the concrete strength and then by the effective prestress, while the reinforcement index in upper flange has only little impact on the moment redistribution. The calculation results are compared with the existing formulas. Finally, a moment redistribution formula is proposed for continuous PC box girder with corrugated steel webs.
