Abstract

On the contrary to buildings (see, for example, Anagnostopoulos 1988; Maison and Kasai 1992; Jankowski 2005, 2007; Karayannis and Favvata 2005; Mahmoud and Jankowski 2009, 2011; Mahmoud et al. 2013; Sołtysik and Jankowski 2013; Polycarpou et al. 2014), earthquake-induced structural pounding in bridges has not been studied so intensively. Fundamental analysis on interactions between superstructure segments in elevated bridges was conducted using a multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) lumped mass model of the structure (Jankowski et al. 1998). The relative displacement spectra of two colliding single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) bridge systems were studied by Ruangrassamee and Kawashima (2001).
