Impact force of a floating woody debris on a masonry arch bridge
Presentation / Conference
Majtan, E., Rogers, B., & Cunningham, L. Impact force of a floating woody debris on a masonry arch bridge. Presented at 2nd IAHR Young Professionals Congress

This paper presents an experimental investigation of flood-induced hydrodynamic and floating woody debris impact on a scaled arch bridge based on a typical single-span masonry arch bridge geometry in the UK. A substantial proportion of masonry arch... Read More about Impact force of a floating woody debris on a masonry arch bridge.

Investigation of flood forces on masonry arch bridges using SPH
Presentation / Conference
Majtan, E., Cunningham, L., & Rogers, B. Investigation of flood forces on masonry arch bridges using SPH. Presented at 18th European Bridge Conference, Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Masonry arch bridges constitute a substantial proportion of the existing bridge stock in the UK and elsewhere. Although this durable bridge form often demonstrates good structural performance under normal service loading, bridges spanning watercourse...
