Description
To address the complexity of bridge design in high seismic zones with improved speed and accuracy, the Arcadis UK team developed an advanced automated workflow integrating MIDAS Civil NX with Grasshopper and Python.
This webinar presents how this integrated approach was applied in a real project to streamline modeling and seismic analysis, significantly improving efficiency, flexibility, and the ability to evaluate multiple design alternatives.
Participants will learn how parametric tools enable automated bridge geometry generation from alignment data, how Python scripting supports seismic response analysis using P–Y curves, and how combined workflows allow rapid comparison and updating of different design scenarios.
