NUMERICAL MODELLING OF ENGINEERING SOIL SHELL STRUCTURE

Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2016, Vol 182, Issue 4

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to provide examples of models used in ground and shell design in engineering facilities made using corrugated sheets, such as roads and rail. Despite the small size of culverts designed for transport use, sophisticated computational models are applied to faithfully reproduce them. To calculate internal forces and displacements resulting from the utility load, spatial 3D models with a very large number of elements are used. The paper discusses simplified 2D models allowing to accurately represent an object and its operation. The focus is on discussing three ways of discretization of a shell in the form of: corrugated metal, rod mesh and orthotropic shell.
