Research on the Seismic Response Characteristic of a Curved Ramp Bridge

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to analyze seismic response of the curved ramp bridge, this paper selected a single curved ramp bridge in a multilevel junction system as its research object. Considering the piers, beams, bearings and expansion joints simulation, it respectively built the calculating models for a curved ramp bridge and a corresponding linear one. Using nonlinear time history analysis, the paper contrasts seismic response of the curved ramp bridge with that of the linear one in several different seismic inputs. Finally the seismic response characteristic of a curved ramp bridge is put forward.
