Abstract
This paper proposes an efficient numerical technique for simulating hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bridge systems. An integrated finite strip method (IFSM) is proposed to evaluate the free vibration performance of cable-stayed FRP bridges. The structural performance of the ultra-long span cable-stayed bridge (ULSCSB) is totally different than steel and concrete bridge structures due to the complexity of the mechanical behavior of the FRP deck. Herein, the anisotropic nature of the FRP laminated deck is considered in the analysis by introducing so-called laminate spline strips in the integrated finite strip solution. The structural interactions between all the components of the bridge can be handled using the proposed method. Column strips and cable strips are introduced and used to model the towers and cables, respectively. In addition, a straightforward scheme for modeling boundary conditions is developed. A case study is presented through which the accuracy and efficiency of the IFSM in modeling such structures, as well as in performing natural frequency analysis of long-span cable-stayed FRP bridges, are evaluated. The finite strip results are verified against the finite element analysis, and a significant enhancement in efficiency in terms of reduction in computational cost is demonstrated with the same level of accuracy.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
