Long Span Bridge

Recently, long span bridge construction has been demanded for development of the regions of the Russian Federation. In terms of economy, it’s useful to build a combined road-railway bridge. Such bridges, generally, constitute a metal cross-cutting girder with carriageways on lower, upper or both zones of the girder. The major advantages of combined bridges are high strength and load capacity, plus cross-cutting to wind load. Focus of this research is a combined road-railway bridge over the Ob river at the stage of assembling and operation. The purpose of the study was to determine the limits of aeroelastic stability of combined road-railway bridge at the stage of assembling and operation using numerical simulation. To better understand the bridges behaviour in air flow, flow around a section model has been researched with CFD simulation in the ANSYS FLUENT. Then based on the given results of the calculations the dependence of the bridge vibrations on wind speed within a specified range is obtained, and also values of drag coefficient Сх, lift coefficient Су and torque coefficient Мz are received. These studies were carried out in the range of angles of attack α = ±3°. The possibility of divergence and galloping was also estimated. The results of the study made it possible to estimate the influence of air flow on combined bridge cross-cutting girder. Overall, the conducted research seems promising for further investigation and development in the field of bridge aeroelasticity.
