Condition Assessment on Thermal Effects of a Suspension Bridge Based on SHM Oriented Model and Data

This paper aims to carry out the condition assessment on temperature distribution and thermal effects of a long span suspension bridge. The structural health monitoring (SHM) oriented data analysis is first performed and several indices are developed to process the time-varying temperature, displace...
