OPTIMAL SHAKEDOWN ANALYSIS OF LATERALLY LOADED PILE WITH LIMITED RESIDUAL STRAIN ENERGY
For application of the plastic analysis and design methods the control of the plastic behaviour of the structures is an important requirement. In this study, the complementary strain energy of the residual forces is considered as an overall measure of the plastic performance of the structure. Shakedown theorem for the analysis of the plastic behaviour of the laterally loaded piles is developed ...
متن کاملSeismic Performance of a Ductile Retrofitted Deck-truss Bridge
Seismic evaluations of many existing deck-truss bridges have revealed the vulnerability of their substructure and members of their superstructure. An innovative retrofit strategy developed by the authors includes replacement of the existing non-ductile end and lower-end bracing with ductile panels by incorporating energy dissipating devices to act as fuses, which can yield and dissipate energy ...
متن کاملLaterally loaded rigid piles in cohesionless soil
In this paper, limiting force profile for laterally loaded rigid piles in sand and is differentiated from the on-pile force profile, from which elastic-plastic solutions are established and presented in explicity expressioins. Nonlinear responses of the piles are characterized by slip depths mobilized from mudline and the pile-tip. At the states of tip-yield and rotation point yield, expression...
متن کاملBidirectional Seismic Behavior of Controlled Rocking Four-Legged Bridge Steel Truss Piers
The behavior and design of four-legged controlled rocking bridge steel truss piers to three components of seismic excitation are presented in this paper. The controlled rocking approach for seismic protection allows a pier to uplift from its base, limiting the force demands placed on the bridge pier and deck, and can allow the structure to remain elastic during an earthquake, preventing damage ...
متن کاملTraveling Waves in a Suspension Bridge System
Traveling Waves in a Suspension Bridge System by Robert A. Ain, Jr. Dr. Zhonghai Ding, Examination Committee Chair Associate Professor of Mathematics University of Nevada, Las Vegas In this thesis, we study the traveling waves in a Lazer-McKenna suspension bridge system which is governed by two coupled nonlinear beam and wave equations. The Lazer-McKenna suspension bridge system describes the v...
