A Multimode Adaptive Pushover Procedure for Seismic Assessment of Integral Bridges

This paper presents a new adaptive pushover procedure to account for the effect of higher modes in order to accurately estimate the seismic response of bridges. The effect of higher modes is considered by introducing a minimum value for the total effective modal mass. The proposed method employs eno...
