Abstract
In order to improve the shear and energy dissipation capacity, this paper proposes a kind of external replaceable energy dissipation ring segment assembly self-reset pier. The ABAQUS platform is used to simulate the refined model of pier and energy dissipation device. Then the influence of different energy dissipation modes on the seismic performance of bridge piers is studied by pseudo-static analysis. Finally, the influence of different parameters of energy dissipation ring on the seismic behavior of bridge piers is analyzed. The results show that the capacity of shear resistance and energy dissipation of the pier with two energy dissipation lines is significantly higher than that of the pier without energy dissipation devices. Reducing the radius of energy dissipation ring can effectively improve the lateral bearing capacity and cumulative energy dissipation of bridge piers. The thickness of energy dissipation ring has little effect on the seismic performance of bridge piers. Increasing a pair of energy dissipation rings can increase the cumulative energy dissipation of bridge piers by 31.1%. Although the residual displacement of pier top increases, the residual displacement angle is still less than 0.5%.
