Abstract: The elastic stiffness of columns is a parameter extensively used for the dynamic and static analysis of bridges. The analytic exact estimation of this parameter is very complicated when the geometry and boundary conditions ...

Abstract: The longitudinal stiffness of the bridge abutments is a parameter extensively used for the dynamic analysis of bridges because it affects the longitudinal vibration of the bridge deck. In this paper, a simple method is ...

Abstract: This paper illustrates the application of a new method for performing baseline corrections on accelerograms generated by the quick‐release method. These accelerograms are produced when highway bridges are subjected to ...
