Large Torsional Oscillations in Suspension Bridges Visited Again: Vertical Forcing Creates Torsional Response
1. The Tacoma Narrows Bridge. In class we discussed a mathematical model that might expalin the collapse of the Broughton Bridge as a column of soldiers marched across it. It does not explain the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, however, as that was caused by torsional, or twisting, oscillations. Consider a roadway of width 2L hanging between two suspended cables, as pictured below. (This...
متن کاملTorsional instability in suspension bridges: the Tacoma Narrows Bridge case
All attempts of aeroelastic explanations for the torsional instability of suspension bridges have been somehow criticised and none of them is unanimously accepted by the scientific community. We suggest a new nonlinear model for a suspension bridge and we perform numerical experiments with the parameters corresponding to the collapsed Tacoma Narrows Bridge. We show that the thresholds of instab...

متن کاملReliability analysis of suspension bridges against buffeting failure
A reliability analysis of suspension bridges against buffeting failure due to gustiness of wind velocity is carried out using the concept of PRA (probabilistic risk analysis) procedure. For this purpose, the bending stresses at the critical nodes of the bridge deck are obtained for buffeting forces using a spectral analysis technique and a finite element approach. For the purpose of reliability...
متن کاملEvaluating the stability of disulfide bridges in proteins: a torsional potential energy surface for diethyl disulfide
Disulfide bonds formed by the oxidation of cysteine residues in proteins are the major form of intra- and inter-molecular covalent linkages in the polypeptide chain. To better understand the conformational energetics of this linkage, we have used the MP2(full)/6-31G(d) method to generate a full potential energy surface (PES) for the torsion of the model compound diethyl disulfide (DEDS) around ...
