Vibration Amplitudes Caused by Parametric Excitation of Cable Stayed Structures

Cable-Stayed Bridges: A Case Study for Vibration-Based Cable Tension Estimation

A cable-stayed bridge recently constructed by the Ohio Department of Transportation incorporates measures put forth by a Federal Highway Administration study to mitigate stay motion. In following recent trends, the stays at this bridge are built without the use of grout for the purposes of inspection and, if necessary, replacement. Several experiments were performed to determine the viability o...

STRUCTURAL ASPECTS OF CABLE-STAYED BRIDGE DESIGN

Motion Based Design of Cable-Stayed Bridges

Recent increases in limit spans of cable-stayed bridges have highlighted the need for new concepts in analysis and design. The increased flexibility requires more theoretical studies on non-linear behavior and on dynamic analysis. Design also is more oriented to a performance-based approach: motion control is more important than strength analysis. My main objective is to define what are the par...

Non-Linear Analysis of Cable Stayed Bridges

he concept of cable-stayed bridges dates back to the seventeenth century. Due to their aesthetic appearance, efficient utilization of material, and availability of new construction technologies, cable-stayed bridges have gained much popularity in the last few decades. After successful construction of the Sutong Bridge, a number of bridges of this type have been proposed and are under constructi...
