Abstract
This paper presents an overview of a comprehensive finite
element analysis software package developed to investigate
highway bridges. This program is developed to specifically
address the coupled influence of the soil-structure, vehicle-structure, and/or fluid/structure interaction problem. The
software has been developed using a simple problem-oriented
language (POL) to facilitate data input. It examines both
linear and nonlinear behaviors and either static, dynamic, or
earthquake loading. An extensive finite element library is
included in the package (including three-dimensional solid and
shell elements). The analysis process is enhanced by the
inclusion of a nodal renumbering routine as well as a variety
of eigenvalue/eigenvector solvers.
