Abstract:

This study presents a technology development for creating 3D finite-element full-scale bridge models based on a data processing platform (DPP) and explores the trial fatigue analysis to serve as an important reference for future practical applications. Until now, the model generation, validation and calculation for a large-scale model of conventional method consume huge time and money. Currently, developments in High- Performance Computing (HPC) and preparation for large parallel computers make numerical simulation operation more efficient. Moreover, through the grouping structure technique, different types of data can be linked together. In this research, a 3D finite-element full-scale bridge superstructure model was created using the DPP. A trial fatigue analysis was performed using a high-performance computer. By considering the details such as the position of each reinforcing bar, prestressed tendon, the slope, etc., the DPP model more closely captures the real structure. Therefore, it could be said that the model made by the DPP has higher analytical accuracy. This research paved the way for the implementation of large-scale fatigue analysis, which has significant engineering applications prospects.
