Abstract

The increasing frequency of seismic events poses significant challenges to the structural integrity of suspension bridges. Understanding how these structures respond to seismic loads is essential for ensuring their safety and performance. Effective modeling and simulation techniques can provide valuable insights into the behavior of suspension bridges under such conditions. This study aims to develop a simulation model for suspension bridges to assess their performance under seismic loading. The research seeks to identify critical factors influencing the bridge's response and propose design modifications to enhance resilience against earthquakes. A finite element analysis (FEA) approach was employed to create a detailed simulation model of a suspension bridge. Various seismic scenarios were simulated using different ground motion records. Key parameters, including displacement, stress, and dynamic response, were monitored and analyzed to evaluate the bridge's behavior. The simulation results indicated that the suspension bridge exhibited significant displacement under seismic loads, particularly at the midspan. Stress concentrations were observed at critical joints and cables, highlighting potential failure points. Design modifications, such as increased cable tension and enhanced damping systems, were proposed to improve the bridge's seismic performance. The research concludes that simulation modeling is a valuable tool for understanding the seismic response of suspension bridges. The findings emphasize the importance of incorporating seismic considerations into the design process. Future research should focus on validating the simulation results with experimental data and exploring advanced materials and technologies to further enhance bridge resilience.

Abstract

The ability to think critically and creatively is essential for students to succeed in a rapidly changing world. Traditional teaching methods often fail to develop these skills in students. Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL), which encourages students to explore questions and seek solutions independently, is proposed as an effective approach to enhancing critical and creative thinking. Despite its potential, limited research exists on the impact of IBL on these skills in high school settings, particularly in non-Western educational contexts. This study aims to investigate the influence of Inquiry-Based Learning on high school students’ critical and creative thinking skills in a classroom setting. A quasi-experimental design was used, involving 120 high school students from two different schools. One group received IBL-based instruction, while the other group followed traditional teaching methods. Data were collected using pre- and post-assessments of critical and creative thinking skills, along with student surveys and classroom observations. The results revealed that students in the IBL group showed significant improvements in both critical and creative thinking skills compared to the control group. Analysis indicated that IBL encouraged greater student engagement, problem-solving, and innovative thinking. The study suggests that Inquiry-Based Learning is a promising method for enhancing high school students’ critical and creative thinking skills, offering valuable implications for educational practices.
