Hooshmandi, Kioumarsi, Kioumarsi MM, Hajmohammadian Baghban MHB: Application of response surface method (RSM) on sensitivity analysis of reinforced concrete bridge pier wall. In: Tange Hasholt.

Abstract
In this paper, the nonlinear behaviour of a reinforced concrete (RC) bridge pier wall was

evaluated by nonlinear finite element analyses (NLFEA) method. The NLFEA results were

compared to the simulated seismic test results conducted on full-scale RC columns. Sensitivity

of some of the design variables and their effects on the seismic behaviour of RC bridge pier wall

has been investigated using response surface method (RSM). RSM prediction is based on results

of finite element analysis.
