Auxiliary Piers on Long-Span Specially Shaped Mixed Steel Structure Main Tower Cable-Stayed Bridge: Research on the Impact on the Dynamic Performance

This study investigates the influence of auxiliary piers on the natural frequency, deformation characteristics, displacements of the related parts, and internal forces of a long-span heterogeneous steel-structured main tower cable-stayed bridge. Taking the Guohe Third Bridge in Anhui Province as an...
