Effect of Ground Motion Directionality on Fragility Characteristics of a Highway Bridge

It is difficult to incorporate multidimensional effect of the ground motion in the design and response analysis of structures. The motion trajectory in the corresponding multi-dimensional space results in time variant principal axes of the motion and defies any meaningful definition of directionalit...
