Abstract:

Floating bridges are an economical and practical alternative for crossing water obstacles, especially in times of emergencies and conflicts. Ribbon pontoon floating bridges are a special type of floating bridge designed, built, stockpiled and deployed by the military and emergency management organizations in times of need. They are light-weight, fast to erect, and use the buoyancy of water to aid in supporting their self-weight and traffic loads imposed on the bridge. With increasing vehicular weights and fast bridge traversing time requirements, it has become necessary to develop reliable ana

Abstract:

The object of the study is a pontoon link, where the role of the bearing structure is performed by non-standard pipes. Construction of surface bridges is widely used in bridge construction and is an essential part of the development of transport infrastructure of our country and abroad. In the case where it is not possible to build capital or low-water bridges, surface bridges or ferry crossings are used. Built-up bridges are very convenient to use in the construction of capital bridges, when the main course of the route is blocked instead of temporary stationary bridges. In order to compare t

As a potential option for transportation applications in coastal areas, curved floating bridges with a same small specified rise to span ratio of 0.134, supported by multiple pontoons, are investigated in this paper. Two conceptual curved bridges are proposed following a circular arc shape with different span lengths (500 and 1000 m). Both bridges are end-connected to the shoreline without any underwater mooring system, while the end-connections can be either all six degrees of freedom (D.O.F) fixed or two rotational D.O.F released.

The entire social and racial system in Richmond was in shambles. Richmond faced innumerable challenges in the immediate postwar period.

Abstract On March 1, 1941, leading elements of the German Twelfth Army crossed the Danube from Rumania to Bulgaria on pontoon bridges. Soon, under a warming, drying sun, German infantry, armored, mountain, and anti-aircraft troops were streaming south through Bulgaria toward the passes of the Rhodope Mountains, the Greek frontier, and the Mediterranean. Hitler, as the New York Times said, was “on the march again.” Trains from Istanbul to Belgrade experienced delays of up to a full day; even the crack Simplon Express was running hours behind schedule. The Nazi build up to seventeen divisions for Operation MARITA, the conquest of Greece, had begun. The 1941 campaigning season was under way.

Abstract:

Abstract Floating bridges are a promising solution for replacing ferries in the crossing of Norwegian fjords. Their design involves the adoption of accurate, but at the same time efficient models for the loads the structure is subjected to. Wave drift forces at the bridge’s pontoon may excite the bridge’s lower horizontal modes, with consequences to the loads on the bridge and mooring lines. Newman’s approximation is normally adopted to calculate the wave drift forces in such applications. A common simplification is to assume that the pontoons are fixed in the calculation of wave drift coeffic

Pontoons with and without bottom flanges have been seen in recent floating bridge designs. Viscous flow separation around the sharp edges of the pontoon or the bottom flange may have strong influences on the hydrodynamic performance of the pontoon in terms of wave excitation, added mass and damping effects.

Long floating bridges supported by pontoons with span-widths between 100m and 200m are discrete hydro-elastic structures with many critical eigenmodes. The response of the bridge girder is dominated by vertical eigenmodes and coupled horizontal modes (lateral) and rotational modes (about the longitudinal axis of the bridge girder). In this paper it is focused on design principles to reduce the response with regards to these eigenmodes. It is shown for a floating bridge with 200m span-width that by inserting a bottom flange the vertical eigenmodes can be lifted out of wind driven wave regime. I

Abstract During the lifetime of floating bridges, the structural components are exposed to ship collision hazards. In the situation where a pontoon is damaged from a collision accident, an in-site repair operation is needed. If a significant damage has occurred, a floating drydock may be used to ensure that the pontoon can be repaired in a dry atmosphere and to compensate for the lost buoyancy. As the repair might take months, a main issue is then whether the bridge can be open for road traffic in the damaged condition and especially during the repair.

For bridges across wide and deep waterways, fixed foundation structures are not possible to be built due to technical restrictions. Alternatively, pontoon supported floating bridges which do not require fixed foundations can be installed. As the girders of floating bridges may have a low clearance from the sea level, a critical design consideration is the capability of the girder to resist the collision of passing ships. It is hence important to investigate the collision response of the bridge girder and evaluate girder residual strength after the collision. In this paper, finite element (FE)

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration is running a project ‘Ferry free coastal route E39’ which includes replacing ferry crossings by bridges or tunnels across eight fjords in Western Norway. Since most of the fjords are wide and deep, traditional fixed links are not possible to be constructed. Therefore, floating bridge and tunnel concepts are proposed for the fjord-crossing project. Because floating bridges and tunnels have many structural components close to the water surface, a critical concern of accidental ship collision loads is then raised.
