To study the application of E shaped steel bearing on the simply supported beam bridge, the Xinhua bridge is analyzed by the nonlinear time-history method and the Midas/Civil software, considering the interaction between pile and soil.
Introduction With rapid development of bridge engineering, various devices are used to improve the anti-seismic performance of bridge [1].
Based on the E shaped steel bearing, this paper establishes two models about simply supported beam bridge by the Midas/Civil software and studies damping performance of the E shaped steel bearing by the nonlinear time-history method.
Fig. 1 The E shaped steel bearing Computational Models and Related Parameters The Xinhua bridge is a simply supported beam bridge which is used as computational models by the Midas/Civil software.
