Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A new bridge design includes a stiffness matrix with eigenvalues indicating frequencies of 1 Hz, 2 Hz, and 3 Hz. If an earthquake occurs at a frequency of 2 Hz, explain how the bridge's design should be adjusted.

💡 Hint: Think about how to avoid natural frequencies matching external forces.

Question 2

Using a given stress tensor for a foundation that supports a construction, find the principal stresses in various orientations and suggest reinforcement placements based on your findings.

💡 Hint: Consider the directions of applied loads and material strength characteristics.
