Under seismic action, non-uniform collision will occur between the main beams of curved beam bridge, which may lead to local damage of front beam or rear beam. At present, the research on collision effect is mainly based on straight beam bridge, and there is still a lack of relevant research on seismic collision of curved beam bridge. Taking two adjacent typical curved bridges as examples, this paper establishes contact elements (linear elastic model, Kelvin model and Hertz model) and solid elements (three-dimensional contact friction model) which can fully reflect the physical characteristics of seismic collision of curved bridges. By comparing the numerical simulation methods of seismic collision, the advantages and disadvantages of the existing numerical simulation methods in the seismic response analysis of curved bridges are evaluated. The results show that the calculation results of Kelvin model and three-dimensional contact friction model have the least error and high calculation efficiency, and are suitable for the seismic analysis of curved beam bridges.
