Features: This book adopts a theory-practice integrated approach to provide a detailed introduction to the internal force analysis, stability analysis, and dynamic analysis of bridge structures. To improve calculation speed and accuracy and ensure the correctness of eigenvalue computation results for large and complex structures, it also introduces the subspace iteration method for solving eigenvalue problems. In the last two chapters, practical knowledge on long-span bridges, construction monitoring, and load distribution of hinged curved plate bridges is presented. The book explains fundamental theories in an accessible manner, with corresponding computer programs at the end of each chapter to facilitate easy learning and immediate application, enabling readers to master computer usage at a faster pace. This book can serve as a teaching and reference text for undergraduate and graduate students in civil engineering and transportation engineering, as well as a reference and tool for structural engineering technicians engaged in design and research in the aforementioned fields.
