In order to consider the fluctuating wind load induced fatigue problem of long span suspension bridge, fatigue reliability formula is modified by assuming the fatigue life is accord with the weibull distribution. Based on the accurate bridge buffeting analysis of time history, the stress time history of components of a suspension bridge in east sea China is simulated, and then the fatigue damages and reliabilities are calculated. The results indicate that the main cables and hangers have enough fatigue reliability under the fluctuating wind load, the fatigue failure will not occur; the stiffening girder has larger fatigue damage, under 40 / (m.s-1) mean wind speed action, the girder of mid-support section’s average fatigue life is only 3.103 years, so the girder’s damage under strong wind action should be taken seriously.

A self-anchored suspension bridge is analyzed for its structural system reliability, and the bridge reliability is relatively high under vehicular load. Through seeking the distinct structural system fault modes the relatively weak structural elements can be identified, which can be the basis on its reasonable design and offer the reference to the analysis for the similar bridge structures. The results verify that the global -Unzipping method and the improved difference equivalent recursion algorithm is efficient and applicable for system reliability evaluation of the complex structures such as self-anchored suspension bridges.

The response surface method (RSM) developed in recent years is an effective way to solve the structural reliability problems with implicit performance function. In order to improve the computational efficiency and make RSM suitable well to large and complex engineering structures, the reliability analysis method based on uniform design method (UDM) and support vector machine (SVM) was proposed. UDM is adopted to select training data and SVM is used as response surface. Structural reliability index is calculated in combination with the traditional reliability analysis methods (such as, the first-order reliability method (FORM), the second-order reliability method (SORM) or Monte Carlo simulation method (MCSM)). Numerical examples show that sampled with the UDM can greatly reduce the number of samples required for training by SVM model, and a very good approximation of the limit state surface can be obtained to get the failure probability. The reliability analysis of the under serviceability limit-state of a typical self-anchored suspension bridge——Sanchaji Bridge was carried out with the improved response surface method.
