A Study on the Mechanism of Impact between Curved Bridge Segments Using Nonsmooth Dynamics
It has been observed in many previous earthquakes that impact often occurs between the main girders in curved bridges. An earthquake can result in deck-unseating leading to catastrophic destruction of the structure. In this paper, the nonsmooth multirigid body dynamics method and the set-valued form...
