Optimal design of superelastic-friction base isolators for seismic protection of highway bridges against near-field earthquakes.
The seismic response of a multi-span continuous bridge isolated with novel superelastic-friction base isolator (S-FBI) is investigated under near-field earthquakes. The isolation system consists of a flat steel-Teflon sliding bearing and a superelastic NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) device. The key d...
