Experimental validation of a non-linear train-track-bridge dynamic model of a stone arch railway bridge under freight traffic

This article presents the validation of a non-linear FE numerical model of a multi-span stone arch railway bridge based on experimental tests and under in-service freight trains. Static loading tests allow evaluating the bridge response in terms of vertical displacements in the arches, opening/closu...
