Seismic Design Method of Self-Centring-Segment Bridge Piers with Tensile-Type Viscoelastic Dampers

This paper aims to study the deformational behaviour of tensile-type viscoelastic dampers under different earthquake excitation directions. A method for calculating the corresponding equivalent additional stiffness and damping of a self-centring-segment bridge pier is derived. Using the displacement...
