On the effectiveness of rotational friction hinge damper to control responses of multi-span simply supported bridge to non-uniform ground motions

Base isolation techniques have been extensively used to improve the seismic performance of the bridge structures. The decoupling of the bridge decks from the piers and abutments using rubber isolator could result in significant reduction in seismic forces transmitted to the bridge substructures. How...
