Thanks a lot sdebock for sharing the information
But I think that only gives me the response at the final step, I mean I can't track the change in modes period as the temperature changes. I need to come up with graphs with horizontal axis to be temperature and the vertical one mode period. what...
Thank you very much Drej
You are right but since the structure is constrained the change in temperature induces additional forces in the members which may change the period of bridge.
Anyway, forgetting about the modulus changes and supposing the temperature changes in the range 0 to +60...
Hi everyone
I am working on modeling a bridge in ABAQUS and I am interested in investigating effects of temperature change on the period of different bridge's vibration modes. Since I am new to the ABAQUS, I don't know what type of analysis should be used for that purpose. Any comments are...
