A comparative analysis of selected models of pedestrian-generated dynamic loads on footbridges – vertical loads

In the paper the characteristics of selected dynamic load models of vertical forces generated during pedestrian movement (Vertical Ground Reaction Forces - VGRFs) and the results of dynamic numerical analyses and dynamic field tests of an exemplary footbridge were presented. Numerical analyses of th...
