Dynamic analysis of Calatrava's la Devesa footbridge
… describe the static and dynamic behaviors of the leaning arch bridge system. In doing so, the finite element method is employed intensively through the use of ADINA. The FEM model is an attempted reproduction of Calatrava's la Devesa footbridge. While Calatrava has developed the form through …

Analysis of the deflections, vibrations, and stability of leaning arches
In recent years, leaning arches have been used in frameworks for some tent structures. Various people have studied the behavior of a single vertical arch; however, only a few researchers have considered the three-dimensional behavior of arches and leaning arches. The objective of this thesis is to …

Finite Element Analysis of a Pair of Leaning Pressurized Arch-Shells Under Snow and Wind Loads
A structure comprised of two arches that lean against each other at the apex is considered. The arches are thin shells with internal pressure. This type of structure with solid arches has been used in bridges, such as the Gateway Arch Bridge in Columbus, Indiana, U.S.A., the Monongahela River …
