MECHANICAL AND DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF BRIDGE BEARING PADS

This book 'Mechanical and Dynamic Response of Bridge Bearing Pads' deals with vibrational and mechanical response of the steel reinforced elastomeric bearing pads. The book contains seven chapters. It describes the experimental investigations on the perforated steel reinforced elastomeric bearing pads. The experimental methods are detailed with suitable schematic representations. It also details the influence of short term and long-term static response of perforated steel shims and thermoplastic composite plates used in the research work. It deals with dynamic response of the steel reinforced elastomeric bearing pads. This also addresses the findings of the experimental study on steel reinforced elastomeric bridge bearing pads and the conclusions are drawn accordingly. The contents of this book will be useful for students, researchers as well as industry professionals.
