Seismic Response of Resilient Bridges with SMA-Based Rocking ECC-Reinforced Piers

Post-earthquake investigation shows that numerous reinforced concrete (RC) bridges were demolished because of large residual displacements. Improving the self-centering capability and hence resilience of these bridges located in earthquake-prone regions is essential. In this regard, a resilient brid...
