This paper presents an up-to-date state-of-the-art review on the behaviour of irregular
bridges under seismic excitation. Although several characteristics and definitions may be …

Seismic behaviour of a total of 76 bridges, including 4 regular and 72 irregular continuous
RC bridges with irregularities in both superstructure and substructure are investigated in this …

A set of fragility curves of a class of reinforced concrete bridges with different degrees of
irregularity has been generated. Eighteen bridge configurations have been identified, from …

In this paper, the seismic behavior of a total of 84 reinforced concrete bridges, including 12
straight and 72 curved bridges was studied. The bridges were designed and detailed …

Seismic response of 9 regular and irregular four-span RC bridges with different
configurations was studied using elastic and inelastic time history analyses. The influence of …

Extensive damage to the bridges in recent earthquakes has revealed the vulnerability of
these structures to the seismic excitation. Bridge piers play a key role in maintaining the …

Cyclic response of a class of reinforced concrete bridges with different degrees of irregularity
in longitudinal direction has been investigated. Eighteen bridge configurations have been …

This article is a parametric study of 315 reinforced concrete bridges including 45 straight and
270 curved bridges for different geometrical conditions in different layouts, which were …

The 525 meters long Infiernillo II bridge crosses the Infiernillo Dam and it is the first isolated
bridge built in Mexico. It is located in the Morelia-Lazaro Cardenas highway that connects …

Uneven distribution of mass, stiffness, and strength over the length of a bridge can produce
rigid body rotation of the superstructure, or “twisting,” during an earthquake. Twisting …
