Bridge-Truck Interaction and Moving Force Identification
At the University of Alabama at Birmingham, I worked on bridge-truck interaction modeling with HyperMesh and LS-DYNA as a simulator for a Moving Force Identification algorithm. The inverse problem computes truck axle loads from the dynamic response of a bridge.
3D finite element model of vehicle-bridge interaction.
