    The dynamic behaviour of bridges strongly affects the infrastructure system of high-speed railways, and is a crucial factor in safety issues and passenger comfort. Dynamics of High-Speed Railway Bridges covers the latest research in this field, including:

    – Recently developed dynamic analysis techniques; 

    – Train excitations;

    – Design issues for high-speed railway bridges

    – Fatigue conduct of viaducts and large span bridges;

    – Bridge dynamic behaviour;

    – Case studies.

    Dynamics of High-Speed Railway Bridges will be invaluable to professionals, scientists, public institutions and students involved in the design, construction and maintenance of high-speed railway bridges.
