Extraction of hysteretic properties of seismically isolated bridges from quick release field tests.
A simple procedure for identifying hysteretic properties of seismically isolated bridges from full scale quick release tests is presented in this paper. An analytical solution for the quick release response of a SDOF system with a bilinear spring is derived. Based on the solution, some characteristi...
