Book excerpt: A two-dimensional nonlinear p-version finite element method is developed for the analysis of boundary value problems relevant to elastomeric bridge bearings. The method incorporates polynomial shape functions of the hierarchic type for the modeling of large-deformations rubber elasticity. In addition, a frictional-contact algorithm based on a penalty formulation and suitable for the interaction of the pad with rigid flat surfaces is derived and implemented. The J sub 2 flow theory with isotropic hardening is utilized to model the reinforcing steel as a bilinear elastoplastic material. Examples are presented to illustrate the performance of the element and some guidelines for the selection of appropriate orders of interpolation and integration rules. The results of a study performed to examine the effects of several design parameters of the bearing are presented. Comparisons with experimental findings are shown. A dynamic lumped model for the walking of the bearing is developed. Viscous frictional interfaces with the girder and the abutment are included. Several cases are analyzed to investigate the factors that affect this phenomenon.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elastomeric bearings have been used in bridges for more than 60 years. They are economical, durable, require minimal maintenance, and are suitable for larger rotations. The AASHTO LRFD Design Specifications provide two different design approaches for elastomeric bearings: Method A and Method B. Method A is simple and rational whereas Method B is complex but more realistic. Method A was proposed with the goal to make it quick and be consistent with Method B. The study has developed solution spaces for these methods which not only assist the analysts to understand the inter-relationship between these methods but also check their compatibility. The analysis of solution spaces demonstrated the possibilities of the cases where bearings designed using Method A fails to satisfy the provisions of Method B.These cases result in inconsistent design and cause difficulties to the designer. Thus, a profound analysis of the behavior of elastomeric bearings is required. For the purpose, nonlinear finite element models are developed using Abaqus/CAE 2019 and are validated with the experimental tests. The results from validated finite element models are compared with analytical closed-form solutions and current AASHTO design methodologies to check their accuracy and recommend a suitable analytical model for a more realistic design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis and ADINA contains the proceedings of the Fourth ADINA Conference held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on June 15-17, 1983. Separating the papers presented in the conference as chapters, this book first elucidates the use of ADINA for analysis of mines with explosive fills. Subsequent chapters explore the use of ADINA in soil mechanics; nonlinear shell analysis; analysis of bond between prestressed steel and concrete; determination and simulation of stable crack growth; offshore structures analysis; modeling of traveling-loads and time-dependent masses; and comparison of two slideline methods. Other notable applications of ADINA are also shown.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis primarily predicts the compressive and rotational stiffness of the elastomeric bearing and exams the behavior of elastomeric bearing under compression, rotation, and combination of shear, compression, and rotational loading. The primary purpose of an elastomeric bearing is to distribute the superstructure loads to the substructure. The elastomers used in the elastomeric bearings undergo deformation to allow necessary movement and rotation of the superstructure. Thus, abstract analysis of the behavior of the elastomeric bearing is required. With that end in view, three-dimensional finite element models are developed using the software Abaqus and the results from the finite element analysis are validated with the experimental data from previous literature. The validated finite element models are used for the calculation of compressive and rotational stiffness of the elastomeric bearings and comparisons are made with the analytical closed-form solutions and current code provision (AASHTO, 2017). Moreover, the bearings are subjected to compression, rotation, and a combination of shear, compression, and rotational loading for the prediction of deformed shape, compressive stress, shear stresses, and shear strains.
