Semi-active control of a cable-stayed bridge under multiple-support excitations.

Investigation of Wagon Derailment Moving on Cable-Stayed Bridge Due to Rail Irregularities

Investigating the effect of pseudo-static components on bridge structures under multiple support excitations using conditional simulated records

Long-span bridges, as vital structures, play a very important role in economic development. Furthermore, the results of several earthquake-damaged bridges showed that their seismic behavior was different from that predicted under uniform excitation and in some cases the responses were more than predicted results. Therefore, the damaged bridges under non-uniform excitations were re-analyzed and ...

Transverse Vibration Control for Cable Stayed Bridge Under Construction Using Active Mass Damper

Phase I Benchmark Control Problem for Seismic Response of Cable-Stayed Bridges

This paper presents the problem definition for the first generation of benchmark structural control problems for cable-stayed bridges. The benchmark problem is based on a cable-stayed bridge that is currently under construction in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, USA. Construction of the bridge is expected to be completed in 2003. The goal of this study is to provide a testbed for the development of s...

Application of Structural Damage Control in Seismic Performance Opti- mization of Long-span Cable-stayed Bridge

The damage caused by earthquake is irresistible for human beings, and the structure with poor robustness is most affected by earthquake. Especially when traffic arteries like bridges and highways are affected, the losses will be unimaginable. To reduce the loss in earthquake, the paper targets the long-span cable-stayed bridge and discusses a method of structural damage control. The energy-diss...
