Abstract

Taking a concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge with a span of 80m for example, the paper studies the stability of this bridge by using the general finite element program. The analysis introduces the method to deal with the stability of these bridges by FEM, also demonstrates the result of the eigenvalue analysis and dual nonlinear analysis according to an example. In eigenvalue analysis, the influence of the brace and the X-brace to this arch bridge`s stability are compared under different load cases; in dual nonlinear analysis, the load-displacement curves of three different load cases of the rib failure are given. All of these are some valuable to the stability of the concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge.
