What is Seismic Response of Curved Bridges about?

This document summarizes a study that numerically evaluates the seismic response of a curved bridge equipped with either elastomeric or sliding isolation bearings under strong earthquakes. Nonlinear dynamic analyses were conducted on a 3D model of the bridge subjected to near-fault earthquakes. The analyses showed that allowing the isolation devices to move in both horizontal directions clearly reduced seismic damage to the piers. Bridges equipped with Friction Pendulum Systems were more flexible and genera
