A model-based real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) method with a robust control algorithm which compensates the timedelay effect for the multi-actuator systems (1/5 scaled [...]

Deep-water piers will be subjected to the hydrodynamic pressure induced by the interaction between bridge piers and surrounding water under earthquake excitations, which [...]

Long-span bridge structures tend to fail under the extreme earthquakes, and nonlinearity should be considered in simulating this kind of event. It is difficult to simulat [...]

Spatially variable ground motions should be considered during the seismic response analysis of large-span structures. Based on original spectral representation method (SR [...]

This paper presents a new type of pre-pressed spring self-centering energy dissipation (PS-SCED) bracing system that combines friction energy dissipation mechanisms betwe [...]
