Wind Induced Vibration

The stayed cable is the key part of the cable-stayed bridge and the main bearing section. Stay cables are prone to vibration under the loads of the rains winds, earthquakes and transportation for the long-span bridge is very flexible and the damping is small. A long time effect of cable vibration on the structure durability has become a serious problem of cable-stayed bridge in the development and operation. Wind induced vibration of stay cable shape is analyzed, and some common damping measures are expounded in the article and it provides the basis for further study in the future.

Nonlinear Finite Element Model

The stress of the main tower of a cable-stayed bridge depends on the connection type between the tower and deck. In order to study the most suitable longitudinal damping mode for a long-span cable-stayed bridge. In this article, a nonlinear finite element model is established based on a large span concrete cable-stayed bridge with a main span of 680 m. Without considering the influence of the transverse constraint, the damping effect of the elastic connection device and the viscous damper is simulated when the longitudinal seismic load is input. The results show that the stiffness of the main beam is increased by installing the elastic connection device, so the longitudinal drift frequency of the main beam is increased, but the stiffness of the structure is not changed by installing the viscous damper. Both viscous dampers and elastic connection structures can reduce the longitudinal displacement of the beam end, but viscous dampers are more favorable for the stress of the main tower. In terms of damping effect, viscous dampers are more suitable for long-span cable-stayed bridges, but, in terms of economy and parameter control, elastic connection devices have more advantages.

Difficult Issue

Seismic design of long-span single pylon cable-stayed bridge at high intensity seismic region has been a difficult issue for designers. There is few references in this aspect at present. Based on the research achievements and the engineering background of a single pylon cable-stayed bridge at high intensity seismic region of East China, a full bridge model is established to analyze dynamic characteristics and seismic responses of the structure. According to the characteristics of excessive displacements of the pylons and main beams and greater plastic deformations of the pylons and the piers when the bridge is under strong earthquake, the damping effect of viscous dampers on the bridge is discussed. The results show that it is necessary to take measures to absorb seismic shocks. The results of this study can be as a reference for seismic design of similar bridges.

Dissipation System

To investigate the optimal longitudinal seismic energy dissipation system of straddle-type monorail-cum-road long-span cable-stayed bridges, the Niutianyang Bridge was selected as the engineering background, and the explicit time-domain dimension-reduced iteration method was adopted to carry out nonlinear time-history analysis. To consider the dynamic characteristics of longitudinal movable supports, the static and dynamic responses of four kinds of energy dissipation systems were studied, including longitudinal unconstrained, elastic cable, viscous damper, and speed lock-up devices. The damping effect of four types of schemes in which viscous dampers were installed at piers or towers was analysed, and the parameters of the viscous dampers were optimised. The influences of the straddle-type monorail train braking force and the running vibration of the straddle-type monorail traffic on the parameters of the viscous dampers were analysed. This study shows that the viscous damper system had the lowest bending moment at the bottom of the tower and a smaller displacement response, and the energy dissipation was the best. Each viscous damper had the highest energy dissipation efficiency when they are installed only at the main tower. The damping effect was better when the damping coefficient c ranged from 3500 to 5000 kN⋅m/s−α and the velocity exponent α ranged from 0.35 to 0.5. The static friction of the straddle-type monorail-cum-road long-span cable-stayed bridge support can resist the trains’ braking force, and the parameters of the viscous damper can be selected regardless of train braking. A suitably large value of velocity exponent α may be required to increase the working velocity of the viscous damper to reduce the damper’s participation in the process of the train crossing the bridge.

Modal identification aims at identifying the dynamic properties including natural frequency, damping ratio, and mode shape, which is an important step in further structural damage detection, finite element model updating, and condition assessment. This paper presents the work on the investigation of the dynamic characteristics of a long-span cable-stayed bridge-Sutong Bridge by a Bayesian modal identification method. Sutong Bridge is the second longest cable-stayed bridge in the world, situated on the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province, China, with a total length of 2 088[Formula: see text]m. A short-term nondestructive on-site vibration test was conducted to collect the structural response and determine the actual dynamic characteristics of the bridge before it was opened to traffic. Due to the limited number of sensors, multiple setups were designed to complete the whole measurement. Based on the data collected in the field tests, modal parameters were identified by a fast Bayesian FFT method. The first three modes in both vertical and transverse directions were identified and studied. In order to obtain modal parameter variation with temperature and vibration levels, long-term tests have also been performed in different seasons. The variation of natural frequency and damping ratios with temperature and vibration level were investigated. The future distribution of the modal parameters was also predicted using these data.
