Seismic damage assessment of bonded versus unbonded laminated rubber bearings: A deep learning perspective

Laminated Rubber Bearings (LRBs), widely employed in highway bridges worldwide, are vulnerable to shear failure, squeezing or displacing during seismic events, potentially compromising bridge safety. Establishing a reliable approach for assessing the damage of LRBs is crucial for evaluating the seismic performance of bridges and preventing serious damage. To address this concern, this paper proposes a novel approach for LRBs seismic damage …
