A coupled wind-vehicle-bridge system and its applications: a review
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of bridges under strong wind and traffic is of great importance to set the traveling speed limit or to make operational decisions for severe weather, such as controlling traffic or even closing the bridge. Meanwhile, the vehicle‟s safety is highly concerned when it is running on bridges or highways under strong wind. During the past two decades, researchers have made significant contributions to the simulation of the wind-vehicle-bridge system and their interactive effects. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of the overall performance of the bridge and traffic system under strong wind, including bridge structures and vehicles, and the associated mitigation efforts.

Recent Research and Applications of Numerical Simulation for Dynamic Response of Long-Span Bridges Subjected to Multiple Loads
Many long-span bridges have been built throughout the world in recent years but they are often subject to multiple types of dynamic loads, especially those located in wind-prone regions and carrying both trains and road vehicles. To ensure the safety and functionality of these bridges, dynamic responses of long-span bridges are often required for bridge assessment. Given that there are several ...
متن کاملIndirect frequency measurement of cable-stayed bridges in cross winds
In conventional bridge health monitoring, a number of sensors are deployed on a bridge directly for detecting its various dynamic properties. This is so called “direct method”. But the drawbacks of the direct method are: laborious deployment of sensors, time-consuming, and not portable. Following the previous Yang’s works (2004) in indirect method by using a passing test vehicle as a message re...
متن کاملDifferent Types of Pitch Angle Control Strategies Used in Wind Turbine System Applications
The most common controller in wind turbine is the blade pitch angle control in order to get the desired power. Controlling the pitch angle in wind turbines has a direct impact on the dynamic performance of the machine and fluctuations in the power systems. Due to constant changes in wind speed, the wind turbines are of nonlinear and multivariate system. The design of a controller that can ad...

متن کاملEvaluation of Multimode Coupled Bridge Response and Equivalent Static Wind Loading
This study addresses recent developments on the evaluation of multimode coupled bridge response and modeling of equivalent static wind loading on bridges when subjected to strong winds. First, the coupled bridge flutter is studied with an emphasis placed on the participation of structural modes in flutter, not only based on their amplitudes in flutter motion, but more importantly, by delving in...
