About this document
Finite Element Analysis of Hanalei Bridge by Cassie Kuwahara is a document available to read on EtoBox.
A finite element analysis was performed on the Hanalei Bridge in Kauai to determine areas of high stress, strain, and displacement. The analysis found that the beams in the middle of the bridge experienced the highest stress, strain, and displacement when only subjected to gravitational forces. This suggests that the middle beams should be closely inspected for fatigue and failure over time. The bridge model made assumptions about the material properties and dimensions that could affect the accuracy of the
