Analysis of the Seismic Behavior of a Wall Pier of a Covered Bridge Based on the Multi-Layer Shell Element

To investigate the seismic behavior of the wall pier of a covered bridge, the multi-layer shell element in OpenSEES was used to carry out the numerical analysis under a horizontal low cyclic loading in the weak axis direction. The effects of the mesh divisions of the wall pier models were evaluated...
