Static and dynamic evaluation of a butterfly-shaped concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge through numerical analysis and field tests

The butterfly-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridge is an irregular bridge with unique esthetics. In this paper, this new shape of CFST arch bridge is introduced, and a refined three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) is established to evaluate static and dynamic behavior of the b...
