I have a concrete girder box bridge that is 40 m long and 4 meters wide, and I would like to simulate the response of the bridge using Ansys random vibration for pedestrian traffic. What are reasonable PSD Acceleration values to use (please justify) and where should I apply these random vibrations? You can assume there are 10 people uniformly distributed along the bridge.

  • $\begingroup$ Your local bridge code should define any requirements for this. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 1, 2024 at 0:39
