In this study, the effect of soil-bridge interaction on the magnitude of the internal forces in integral bridge (IB) components due to live load effects is studied. For this purpose, structural models of typical IBs are built by including and excluding the effect of backfill and foundation soil. The analyses of the models are then conducted under AASHTO live load. In the analyses, the effects of the backfill and foundation soil on the magnitude of the internal forces in IB components are studied for various structural, geometric and geotechnical parameters such as bridge size, abutment height and thickness, pile size and orientation, number of spans and foundation soil stiffness. The analyses results revealed that soil-bridge interaction has a significant effect on the magnitudes of internal forces due to live load in the components of IBs.

Effect of soil-bridge interaction on the magnitude of internal forces in integral abutment bridge components due to live load effects Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2010-01-01) In this study, the effect of soil-bridge interaction on the magnitude of the internal forces in integral abutment bridge (IAB) components due to live load effects is studied. For this purpose, structural models of typical IABs are built by including and excluding the effect of backfill and foundation soil. Analyses of the models are then conducted under an AASHTO live load. In the analyses, the effects of the backfill and foundation soil on the magnitude of the internal forces in IAB components are studied ...
Effect of soil and substructure properties on live-load distribution in integral abutment bridges Dicleli, Murat (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2008-09-01) This study is aimed at investigating the effect of soil-structure interaction and substructure properties at the abutments on the distribution of live-load effects in integral abutment bridge (IAB) components. For this purpose, numerous 3D and corresponding 2D structural models of typical IABs are built and analyzed under AASHTO live-load. In the analyses, the effect of various geotechnical and substructure properties such as foundation soil stiffness, considering and neglecting the effect of backfill, back...
Effect of Shear Wall Area to Floor Area Ratio on the Seismic Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Buildings Burak Bakır, Burcu (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2013-11-01) An analytical study is performed to evaluate the effect of shear wall area to floor area ratio on the seismic behavior of midrise RC structures. For this purpose, 24 midrise building models that have five and eight stories and shear wall ratios ranging between 0.51 and 2.17% in both directions are generated. Then, the behavior of these building models under earthquake loading is examined by carrying out nonlinear time history analyses. In the analyses, seven different ground motion records are applied to th...
Effects of Substrate Parameters on the Resonance Frequency of Double-sided SRR Structures under Two Different Excitations Ekmekci, E.; Averitt, R. D.; Sayan, Gönül (2010-07-08) In this study, we numerically investigate the effects of substrate parameters (i.e., the thickness and the permittivity) on the resonance frequency of the double-sided SRR (DSRR) structure under two different excitation conditions. This includes either electric or magnetic excitations which are two common techniques to obtain a resonant effective permittivity or permeability, respectively. The numerical calculations are performed using CST Microwave Studio. The numerical results reveal a similar trend in th...
Effect of the high frequency components of near-fault ground motions on the response of linear and nonlinear SDOF systems: A moving average filtering approach Yalcin, O. Fatih; Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2020-02-01) In this study, the effect of the high frequency components of near fault ground motions (NFGM) with forward rupture directivity effect (FRDE) on the seismic response of elastic and inelastic SDOF regular (non-isolated) and seismic isolated structures is studied. For this purpose, Moving Average filtering method is used to remove the high frequency content of the NFGM at various filtering levels. The key motive for this effort is to evaluate the appropriateness of representing the NFGMs by decomposed signals...
