Seismic performance evaluation of hyfrc bridge pier by hybrid simulation

Abstract

Bridges are important lifeline structures and vital links in land transportation network The failures of bridges during a seismic event would prevent smooth relief and rehabilitation activity in the neighbourhood as alternative routes may not be available in the vicinity Deficiencies in the behaviour of bridges are observed during many earthquakes all over the world In these failure of bridges the reinforced concrete piers are mostly observed to be considerably damaged which implies that c
