Dynamic Analysis of Multihazard-Resistant Bridge Piers Having Concrete-Filled Steel Tube under Blast Loading

چکیده

Research was conducted to analytically investigate the blast-response and behavior of multihazard-resistant bridge piers having circular-shaped, concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns. Two different analysis methods, namely a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) dynamic analysis and a fiber-based dynamic analysis, were used for this purpose and calibrated with the maximum residual deformations obtained from 1=4 scale blast tests of CFST columns. It was noted that the structural response of SDOF dynamic analyses is sensitive to assumptions made in the load-mass factors needed to model structural components as an equivalent SDOF system. Fiber-based dynamic analyses showed that high-frequency modes of vibration have some influence on the structural response when subjected to blast loading. This study shows that different values of the shape factors, β (which reduces blast pressures when applied to a circular column), must be used with different analytical methods, along with assumptions and conditions behind these different analytical methods.
