Abstract:

This paper explores the interaction system of nonlinear foundation soil and nonlinear gravity pier. Superstructure resilience model employed ideal elasto-plastic model, foundation adopted tensionfree-consolidated elasto-plastic Winkler foundation model with experimental support. Through an account case of a gravity pier, this paper concludes that co-action of foundation soil and bridge pier needs to be considered in design of seismic prevention for bridge.
