Seismic Time History Analysis for Cable-Stayed Bridge Considering Different Geometrical Configuration For Near Field Earthquakes
نویسنده
چکیده
To increase the maximum span of cable-stayed bridges, Uwe Starossek has developed a modified statical system. The basic idea of this new concept is the use of pairs of inclined pylon legs that spread out longitudinally from the foundation base or from the girder level. Spread-pylon cable-stayed bridge has distinct advantage like reduction of sag of cables and oscillation of cable during earthquake over traditional cable-stayed bridges. Spread-pylon also improves seismic performance of deck during strong ground motion. Keywords—Different geometry of cable stayed bridge, seismic time history analysis, earthquake displacement ratio, response mode shape.

Non-Linear Analysis of Cable Stayed Bridges
he concept of cable-stayed bridges dates back to the seventeenth century. Due to their aesthetic appearance, efficient utilization of material, and availability of new construction technologies, cable-stayed bridges have gained much popularity in the last few decades. After successful construction of the Sutong Bridge, a number of bridges of this type have been proposed and are under constructi...
متن کاملElastic-plastic Seismic Behavior of Long Span Cable-stayed Bridges
This paper investigates the elastic-plastic seismic behavior of long span cable-stayed steel bridges through the plane finite-element model. Both geometric and material nonlinearities are involved in the analysis. The geometric nonlinearities come from the stay cable sag effect, axial force-bending moment interaction, and large displacements. Material nonlinearity arises when the stiffening ste...
متن کاملA Numeral Research on Effect of Vertical Component of Near Field Earthquakes on Long Span Bridges Built on Different Soil Conditions
In this study we tried to consider effect of vertical component of near zone earthquake (10 to 15 km far from fault) such as Kobe 1995, Northridge 1994, Loma prieta 1989 and Chichi 1999 on a concrete cable bridge by a 320m span in the middle which was built on different type of soils. The SAP software (version14) was selected because I should have done linear and non-linear time history anal...
متن کاملApplication of Structural Damage Control in Seismic Performance Opti- mization of Long-span Cable-stayed Bridge
The damage caused by earthquake is irresistible for human beings, and the structure with poor robustness is most affected by earthquake. Especially when traffic arteries like bridges and highways are affected, the losses will be unimaginable. To reduce the loss in earthquake, the paper targets the long-span cable-stayed bridge and discusses a method of structural damage control. The energy-diss...
