چکیده
With the development of high-speed railway in recent years, lots of researchers have been paying more and more attention to the seismic isolation of high-speed railway bridge. The equivalent linear model of hysteretic characteristics of lead rubber bearings (LRB) is presented, the computational method and the varying range of dynamic parameters effecting hysteretic characteristics of LRB are established. The finite model of a high-speed railway bridge including simulating of LRB is set up by ANSYS software. The seismic responses and seismic isolation ratio of high-speed isolated bridge installed LRB are calculated, and isolation effect are compared with those fabricated the common bearings; the factors which influence seismic isolation are analyzed. The calculation results show that the bending moment and shear force of pier bottom of and displacement of grider decrease effectively for that bridge with LRB, the LRB has excellent performance on seismic isolation and energy dissipation.

Dynamic Analysis of Railway Bridges under High Speed Trains
The interest in dynamic behavior of railway bridges has increased in recent years with the introduction of high speed trains. Higher speeds of the trains have resulted in larger and more complicated loads than earlier, producing significant dynamic effects. The dynamic aspects are of special interest and have often shown to be the governing factor in the structural design. Dynamic analysis of r...
متن کاملA Case Study on Performance of Isolated Bridges under Near-Fault Ground Motion
Abstract—This paper presents a numerical investigation on the seismic performance of a benchmark bridge with different optimal isolation systems under near fault ground motion. Usually, very large displacements make seismic isolation an unfeasible solution due to boundary conditions, especially in case of existing bridges or high risk seismic regions. Hence, near-fault ground motions are most l...

This paper presents a finite element method (FEM) framework for the dynamic analysis of coupled vehicle—bridge systems under nearfield /far-field ground motions. A train car with two bogies is assumed to be represented sufficiently by a discrete, rigid multi-body system with thirty-eight degrees of freedoms (DOFs). The normal Hertzian contact theory and the tangential Kalker linear theory modif...

Recent experimental research has shown that ordinary unbounded steel reinforced elastomeric bearings (SREBs) can be considered as an attractive cost-effective option for the seismic isolation of highway bridges. To further investigate its benefits, the current study is focused on the seismic risk assessment of an optimally designed highway bridge isolated by SREB system. A typical three-span hi...
