Effect of subduction zone earthquakes on SDOF bridge models

Creator:

Long, Yicheng

Abstract:

Current bridge design codes do not account for the effects of duration of mega-thrust subduction zone earthquakes. Furthermore, codes and even recent performance-based design methodologies only make use of the peak response quantities (forces, displacements, and ductility demands) and do not account for the increased number of inelastic cycles that...

Evaluation of ground motion duration effects on the damage prediction of building and bridge structural and soil-structural systems

Creator:

Belejo, Andre

Abstract:

The role of ground motion duration on the seismic performance of civil engineering structures remains unclear. Thus, the role of earthquake strong ground motion duration is assessed in a three manuscript thesis, which includes: (1) assessment of the effects of ground motion duration on the seismic performance of a model...
