Title: Response of a High-Speed Train Bridge Under the Extreme Event of a Passing Train and an Earthquake
Abstract: In recent years, high-speed rail links have become a competitive alternative to air travel for distances up to 800 km. As a consequence, intensive construction programmes for high-speed railway links started in Europe and Asia. Due to the demanding requirements of the railway alignments long stretches of bridges and viaducts had to be built (Taiwan) or are in the planning stage (Portugal). It is not uncommon that in some countries a third of the length of such lines consists of bridges and tunnels.
