Development of a Remotely Collaborative Testing Platform for Bridge Structures Based on NetSLab

摘要

A remotely collaborative pseudo-dynamic testing platform for bridge structures has been developed based on NetSLab system. It can be used for seismic performance investigation of large-scale bridge structures by combining the Internet and sub-structure technology. The testing platform consists of three modules: control center, physical tester and virtual tester. Through a network communication platform, the operation of receiving and feedback of test data between various modules can be realized. Based on the previous research work, a further improvement of the dynamic structural model, the finite element numerical analysis and the rational division of sub-structure has been achieved. A series of remotely virtual collaborative pseudo-dynamic test of bridge structures has been conducted to verify the feasibility of the test platform.
