Effect of Ground Motion Directionality on Fragility Characteristics of a Highway Bridge
Figure 3
Schematic response of the example bridge at any time instant t under two orthogonal components of ground motion (plan view); (a) longitudinal response and its projection on axis under , (b) transverse response and its projection on axis under , (c) longitudinal response and its projection on (90 +) axis under , and (d) transverse response and its projection on (90 + ) axis under .
