Abstract:The possibility of motor vehicles parking on or slowly driving on the urban viaducts during earthquakes has been largely increased to a non‐negligible level due to the traffic jams in most of modern cities. As a fact of the earthquake disaster investigation, detachment and collision between motor vehicles and the bridge deck endangered the safety of both drivers and the bridge structure itself. In recent studies, Hertz model was therefore proposed to simulate this nonlinear contact and collision behavior with … Show more
