Multi-fidelity shape optimisation of suspension bridge decks

Written by
Dr Kusano investigates the design optimisation of long-span suspension bridges, such as the Hardanger Bridge in Norway.

Over the last century, technological advances have resulted in increased length of the main span of long-span suspension bridges, making them even more vulnerable to structural vibrations caused by environmental factors, particularly wind. Dr Ibuki Kusano from the University of Stavanger, Norway, and her collaborators are investigating the structural response of suspension bridges under wind loads. The research team has […]
