Performance-Based Seismic Design of Hybrid Isolation Systems with Gap-Tunable BRBs for Bearing-Supported Bridges

نویسندگان

چکیده

This study proposes a class of hybrid isolation systems constructed by combining Buckling Restrained Braces (BRBs) with Rubber Bearings (RBs) or Lead (LRBs) for mitigating the seismic responses in bearing-supported bridges under strong earthquakes. Firstly, two different (RB–BRB and LRB–BRB) were preliminarily designed based on energy-conservation concept case bridge Y-shaped piers, which can meet all energy demands at hazard levels. Further, evaluations conducted LRB, RB–BRB, LRB–BRB nonlinear time history analyses. The proposed show two-phase dissipation behavior, facilitates to reduce remarkably earthquake scenarios achieve most performance objectives corresponding code-specified Finally, fragility analyses, effects gap spacing stiffness ratio BRB pier investigated respect failure probability LRB–BRB. It has been validated that performances this study’s be improved considerably optimized stiffness.

PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OPTIMIZATION FOR MULI-COLUMN RC BRIDGE PIERS, CONSIDERING QUASI-ISOLATION

In this paper an optimization framework is presented for automated performance-based seismic design of bridges consisting of multi-column RC pier substructures. The beneficial effects of fusing components on seismic performance of the quasi-isolated system is duly addressed in analysis and design. The proposed method is based on a two-step structural analysis consisting of a linear modal dynami...

Seismic Performance of seat-type bridges with elastomeric bearings

In Iran and some other countries, elastomer bearings in seat-type bridges are used with no sole/masonry plates and there is no positive connection between superstructure and substructure. Different codes have diverse provisions regarding the coefficient of friction (μ) between elastomer bearing and superstructure/substructure and also the design strength of shear keys (Vsk). Developing a finite...

Reliability-based Design of Seismic Retrofit for Bridges

This research focused on developing reliability-based seismic retrofit assessment procedures for highway bridge columns. Fragility curves were developed to assess the relative performance of various retrofit methods considering several limit states. Analytical fragility curves are developed from scaled earthquake records and structural response models. A simplified, single-degree-of-freedom (SD...

Performance Based Seismic Design

Performance based seismic design (PBSD) is a cogent design approach that allows engineers to design structures with a predictable seismic performance for a specified level of hazard. In contrast to the conventional limit state or strength and serviceability based design in which a structure is designed to withstand severe load combinations and be functional under normal load conditions, PBSD go...

Probabilistic Evaluation of Seismic Performance of RC Bridges in Iran

 Many existing bridges were designed without adequate consideration of seismic risk. The full or partial collapse of even one major bridge in a city or community would have destroying results. There has been focuses on developing fragility-based seismic vulnerability of existing usual bridges in Iran or support decision making on seismic upgrade. This article focuses on developing performance b...
