A stochastic approach has been formulated for the linear analysis of suspension bridges subjected to earthquake excitations. The transfer functions of various responses have been formulated while including the e!ects of dynamic Soil}Structure Interaction (SSI) via the use of the "xed-base modes of t

✦ Synopsis
The mechanical characteristics of earthquake-resistant structures and the ground motion properties that have an important in#uence on the seismic performance of structures with asymmetric load}deformation behaviour, are identi"ed from the results obtained from a parametric study of the dynamic response of single-degree-of-freedom systems. The dynamic response of tilted single and multi-degree-of-freedom systems, designed according to Mexican requirements for the design of asymmetric structures is studied. After a general understanding of this phenomenon is o!ered, shortcomings in current design requirements for tilted structures are discussed. Research needs to establish a rational design approach of this type of structures are identi"ed.
