The book focuses on the use of inelastic analysis methods for the
seismic assessment and design of bridges, for which the work
carried out so far, albeit interesting and useful, is nevertheless
clearly less than that for buildings. Although some valuable
literature on the subject is currently available, the most advanced
inelastic analysis methods that emerged during the last decade are
currently found only in the specialised research-oriented
literature, such as technical journals and conference proceedings.
Hence the key objective of this book is two-fold, first to present
all important methods belonging to the aforementioned category in a
uniform and sufficient for their understanding and implementation
length, and to provide also a critical perspective on them by
including selected case-studies wherein more than one methods are
applied to a specific bridge and by offering some critical comments
on the limitations of the individual methods and on their relative
efficiency. The book should be a valuable tool for both researchers
and practicing engineers dealing with seismic design and assessment
of bridges, by both making the methods and the analytical tools
available for their implementation, and by assisting them to select
the method that best suits the individual bridge projects that each
engineer and/or researcher faces.
