国外常用的桥梁专业软件

刚刚突然好奇国外的项目都在用什么软件，运气还不错，找到了这个页面。瞬间又觉得软件太多，花了眼。

然而实际情况是，我们真的需要那么多软件么？Leroy Z.Emkin 博士的文章是一个提醒，也提出了一个话题。既然基于相同结构分析理论，那为什么会涌现出那么多的同类型软件，不同软件之间的计算差异是从哪里得来的？这些差异会对工程造成怎样的影响？结构分析总是要在施工之前进行，分析结果的准确性直接影响到工程安全，这是一个必须要解决的事情。

前几天在沈阳开会，见到一款专注于桥梁荷载试验的软件BLT系统。这是一个不错的方向，软件做小做精不做大，能把一个工程问题解决透彻就可以说是上乘佳作了。但是，全功能无限制版本要40万，这个貌似有点太贵了。。有了它，做荷载试验方案可以一小时搞定，没有它可以一天搞定，既然要这么高的价格，我还是一天搞定比较划算。

另外，软件算出来的结果并不能让人十分放心。大多数软件都是个黑箱，给它数据，返回结果，至于结果是怎么算出来的，中间经历怎样的过程，不太好说。虽然有限元本身就是一个近似的方法，但还是希望能尽可能接近真实。

于是，说到底，还是自己编程，或在大型软件的基础上二次开发来的比较靠谱一些。
