24 Conclusions & Future Research Needs

25 Concluding Remarks Probabilistic Performance-based Optimum Seismic Design (PPBOSD) framework Provides an integrated and scientific approach for optimum seismic design of civil infrastructure systems in the face of uncertainty, with objective and constraint functions defined in terms of risk features/metrics defined at different stages of the PBEE assessment methodology (i.e., demand, damage, and/or loss hazard). Provides the proper tool to develop, calibrate and validate simplified probabilistic PBD methods for engineering practice (i.e., development of PBD code procedures). Can be extended to other natural and man-made hazards (e.g., tsunami, wind/hurricane/tornadoes, blast, fire), as well as multi-hazard design problems. Investigation of seismic isolation for California high-speed rail bridges in high seismic risk areas Seismic isolation decreases the seismic demand (e.g., displacements, deformations, internal forces) on the bridge substructure (piers and foundations) as well as the absolute deck acceleration. Seismic isolation increases the seismic demand on deck displacement and thus on rail stress (especially at the interior expansion joints). 25

26 Concluding Remarks Design optimization in the context of Probabilistic Performance-Based Design (PBD) Optimization of seismic isolation for CHSR prototype bridge achieved using a grid-based brute force approach taking advantage of cloud-based computing for parallel instead of sequential evaluation of multiple design alternatives and multiple time history analyses. The proposed PPBOSD framework allows to find: Initial feasible design satisfying the target risk-based design criteria. Improved design Optimum design The proposed PPBOSD framework provides high flexibility in the formulation of risk-based design criteria (at the demand, damage and/or loss hazard level) in support of Probabilistic PBD.
