Abstract

In recent years, the segmental self-centering bridge structure has emerged as a prominent research area in the field of bridge engineering due to its exceptional seismic performance and recoverability. This study establishes a fiber finite element model based on vibration table tests conducted on a segmental self-centerting concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) bridge. Then, the accuracy of the finite element model is verified by comparing the superstructure response and peak seismic acceleration obtained from finite element model simulation and vibration table test. Furthermore, enabling an analysis of its seismic behavior and response under large intense ground motion. The findings demonstrate that even when subjected to 60% amplitude ground motion, the segment-assembled self-resetting concrete-filled steel tube bridge maintains excellent seismic performance and recoverability with a minimal residual displacement ratio of only 0.67%.The lateral force-displacement hysteretic curve of the segmental self-centering CFST bridge shows a spindle shape, which can reflect its strong plastic deformation and energy consumption capacity in the high seismic fortification-resistant area.
