Fragility-Based Improvement of System Seismic Performance for Long-Span Suspension Bridges by Guanya Lu, Kehai Wang, Wenhua Qiu

“…The results showed that compared to the absolutely serial and serial-parallel assumptions, the defined composite damage indices incorporating the thought of component classification and structural relative importance between the main bridge and approach structures were necessary and were able to derive a good indicator of seismic performance assessment, hence validating the point that the different damage states were dominated by the seismic demands of different structures for the retrofitted bridges.…”
