This thesis is mainly focused on comparative seismic assessment of bridges with multi-colum pier bent and hammerhead pier under soft to stiff soil conditions. Soil and structure interaction (SSI) plays a vital role in bridge engineering as SSI on buildings and SSI on bridges. Moreover, bridges with tall piers having high aspect ratios are chosen in order to investigate the effects of rocking. The scope of this thesis is limited to symmetrical bridges having high aspect ratios. SSI in bridges is taken into consideration. In order to examine the interaction between soil and bridge, soil is modelled by three types of springs which work for sliding, rocking and shear of the foundation as well as force-displacement relationships of backfill including radiation damping. These springs are taken from Beam on Nonlinear Winkler Foundation Model. After modelling the soil, bridge models are chosen from real life in order to observe the effects of soil and structure interaction realistically. The analyses are conducted under loose, medium dense and dense sand.

Comparative seismic assessment of continuous slab on girder bridges with multi column pier bent and hammerhead pier for soft and stiff soil conditions
İmamoğlu, Çağrı; Dicleli, Murat; Department of Engineering Sciences (2018)

Soil and structure interaction (SSI) plays a vital role in bridge engineering as SSI on buildings and SSI on bridges.

Composite reliability model for local scour around cylindrical bridge piers
Yanmaz, Ali Melih (2001-06-01)
Bridge scour is an extremely complex phenomenon because of the random characteristics of sediment laden flow in close proximity to piers and abutments. This occurrence leads to high uncertainties and unavoidable risk in bridge pier and abutment design. In this study, a composite reliability model is developed for the reliability assessment of bridge pier scour using static resistance - loading interference. Based on the physical interpretation of the phenomenon and a statistical analysis of the available in...
TURBULENT BOUNDARY-LAYER AND THE EFFECT OF CRITICAL ROUGHNESS REYNOLDS-NUMBERS ON THE RECOVERY LENGTH BEHIND AN ISOLATED SPHERICAL ROUGHNESS ELEMENT UNDER VARIABLE PRESSURE-GRADIENT
Albayrak, Kahraman (1990-03-01)
The transition characteristics and the boundary layer development behind an isolated spherical roughness element were investigated in an open-circuit, suction-type wind tunnel. The experiments were performed upon a smooth aluminiuim flat plate placed in the test section of the tunnel. The desired pressure gradient was obtained by means a false roof placed in the test section. In this article, emphasis is given to the recovery length of the turbulent boundary layer behind an isolated spherical roughness ele...
Analysis of the effects of vertical pre-release cracks on prestressed concrete bridge girders
Baran, Eray; French, Catherine; Wyffels, Tina (Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, 2004-11-01)
Vertical cracks, termed "pre-release cracks," beginning at the top flange and propagating downward into the section depth have been observed to develop during the production of long-span prestressed concrete bridge girders. The cracking which is attributed to the restrained shrinkage the concrete and thermal effects during the curing period prior to release of the prestressing strands, tends to be more critical for long-span girders with deep sections and large amounts of prestressing strands. Studies were ...
Reduction of scouring depth by using inclined piers
Bozkuş, Zafer (Canadian Science Publishing, 2010-12-01)
The aim of this experimental study is to examine the effect of inclination of dual bridge piers on scour depth under clear-water conditions for various uniform flow depths. Duration of 4 h was used in the experiments for each run. Scour depths were measured at four different points around the piers. The depths of local scour around inclined piers were found to be substantially smaller than the scour depths around vertical piers. Dimensional and nondimensional curves were developed and presented to show the ...
