Analysis of the braking longitudinal force considered by NBR7187 (2003) through a case study

This paper analyzed the mechanical behavior of a railway bridge by the Finite Element Method and by monitoring strain deformations with extensometry during its operation. To represent the situations that occur in its operation, tests were made with train braking. The results of monitoring the bottom...
