Midas Civil moving load bridge analysis is the vehicle-load generation and placement workflow for bridge structures.
How It Works
The analysis reference distinguishes lanes, traffic surface lanes, vehicle definitions, moving loads, and vehicle placement conditions. The workflow is load generation on top of the finite element model: vehicle axle or wheel loads are placed over admissible lanes or surfaces, then critical effects are evaluated through combinations or influence-style searches.
Solver Development Notes
Lane geometry and traffic surface definitions should be data structures, not manual load cases only.
Load generation must convert vehicle position into equivalent nodal or element loads.
Critical response extraction requires response components, envelopes, and placement metadata.
Reference comparisons should include displacement, reaction, member force, and stress envelopes for simple bridge models.
