Result of seismic response analysis of a large span cable based bridge with inconsistent inputs is presented in a conjugated paper and is further deal with in this paper. The results from synthesized motions for the same earthquake source and same distance to the rupture show a large difference. They are compared with characteristics of the inputs in this paper. The effect of the motion amplitudes and the coherency between the input motions at the two ends of the main girder on the maximum response displacements and internal forces are pointed out.

Based on the orthogonal expansion method of stochastic processes, seismic acceleration processes can be represented as a linear combination of deterministic functions modulated by a set of mutually independent random variables. In conjunction with the probability density evolution method, the random seismic response of bridge structures can be successfully researched. A long-span bridge structure is taken as an example. The probabilistic information of the response of a long-span bridge structure in different control under earthquake excitations is investigated. The investigation provides a new approach to the random seismic response analysis of long-span bridge structures.

Seismic response of a large span cable based bridge with inconsistent inputs is analyzed in this paper. The bridge model is built by the function of finite element software ANSYS. The free vibration characteristics of the bridge are analyzed by Lanczos Vector Iterative method. The first and the twentieth free vibration frequencies are 0.06808 Hz and 0.54392 Hz respectively. A set of motions of consistent, traveling wave and synthesized (inconsistent) are adopted as inputs at the two supports. The lengthwise, lateral and vertical displacements at the span center and quarter span of the main girder, at the tops of the supporting towers, and the internal forces in the girder and at the base of the towers are calculated. The result shows obviously the necessity to take into account inconsistent input in seismic response analysis of large span bridge.
