Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The bearing capacity of bridges has always been the center of attention in bridge construction. How can we evaluate the maximum weight a bridge can bear? This is often influenced by a variety of factors, from the structural design of the bridge itself, the materials we used to the traffic characteristics of the specific location, the study of the dynamic interaction between vehicles and the bridge, and the modeling and analysis of traffic flow.
The aim of this Special Issue: “Bridge Construction and Traffic Loading” is to encourage researchers to publish their original research and review articles in this field and create a friendly atmosphere for communication. If you are interested in this topic, you are welcome to contribute to this Special Issue.
