Fatigue system reliability analysis of riveted railway bridge connections

A system-based model for fatigue assessment of riveted railway bridge connections, comprising a number of basic components, is presented in this paper. Probabilistic fatigue load spectra are developed through Monte Carlo simulation of train passages over a finite element model of a typical, short-span bridge. Uncertainties arising from loading, resistance and modelling sources are taken into ac...

Global-local finite element analysis of riveted railway bridge connections for fatigue evaluation

Recent studies have found that stringer-to-cross-girder connections in riveted railway bridges are susceptible to fatigue cracking. Fatigue damage in these connections is caused by secondary, deformation induced effects. These effects are difficult to interpret in terms of a single, applied stress descriptor, which is customarily used in an S-N assessment. In order to address this problem, and,...

System effects on the fatigue reliability of deteriorating riveted railway bridges

This paper presents a system-based model for the fatigue assessment of old, deteriorating riveted railway bridge connections, which are built up of a number of basic components. A finite element model of a typical, short-span railway bridge is used to convert train loading into probabilistic fatigue load spectra via Monte Carlo train simulations. Uncertainties in terms of loading, resistance an...

Probabilistic fatigue load spectra for riveted railway bridges

This paper presents a probabilistic load model for fatigue assessment of old metallic railway bridges. The traffic basis of the model consists of trains obtained from past records and present-day trains obtained from codes. The traffic is divided into four distinct time periods each associated with particular characteristics in rail traffic. Traffic evolution scenarios for the future, in terms ...

Probabilistic fatigue life estimates for riveted railway bridges

A large percentage of the railway bridges in the UK rail network and around Europe are of riveted construction exceeding in many cases 100 years of age. The remaining fatigue life of these bridges is difficult to estimate due to the uncertainties regarding the fatigue behaviour of wrought-iron and older steel material, which was used for their construction, as well as the actual loading and the...
