Deciphering the Tsunami Wave Impact and Associated Connection Forces in Open-Girder Coastal Bridges

Creator:

Istrati, Denis, Buckle, Ian, Lomonaco, Pedro, and Yim, Solomon

Abstract:

In view of the widespread damage to coastal bridges during recent tsunamis (2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 in Japan) large-scale hydrodynamic experiments of tsunami wave impact on a bridge with open girders were conducted in the Large Wave Flume at Oregon State University. The main objective was to decipher the...

Large–Scale Laboratory Experiment and Numerical Simulation of Tsunami Forces on a Bridge Deck

Creator:

Xiang, Tao

Abstract:

The fluid impact forces on a bridge superstructure in horizontal and vertical directions due to tsunamis represented by solitary waves are investigated through a large-scale laboratory experiment and numerical simulations. The experiment is conducted in a two-dimensional wave basin using a 1:5 scaled reinforced concrete bridge deck model tested under...
