PyBTLS - Python Bridge Traffic Load Simulation
PyBTLS is a Python wrapper of the C++ based program bridge traffic load simulation (BTLS). It is tailored for traffic simulations on short-to-medium length bridges, where vehicles’ lane-changing behaviors are considered negligible.
PyBTLS uses influence lines or surfaces to calculate the load effects on bridges. It integrates several built-in influence lines (check the docs), and more influence lines or surfaces can be defined by users.
Installation
To install PyBTLS just do:
pip install pybtlsFeatures
Generate new traffic from historical traffic;
Can get any load effect data, with additional Python bridge analysis packages (there are many) to define the IL/IS;
Simulation runs efficiently, with C++ backend and Python multiprocessing support;
Well-organized output data in pandas DataFrame;
Integrates block-maximum analysis, peak-over-threshold analysis, rainflow analysis, etc.
Getting started
This Documentation provides all the information needed to install PyBTLS and conduct different simulations supported by PyBTLS. More detailed information about the input and output data can be found in the Manual.
