The dynamic response of a concrete railway arch bridge is studied through a case study of the bridge over Kalix River, situated at Långforsen on the railway line between Kalix and Morjärv in northern Sweden. A simplified beam-element model, a spatial grillage-beam model and a refined shell-element m...
