The paper focuses on extending a recently proposed damage localization method, previously devised for structures subjected to a known input, to ambient vibrations induced by an unknown wind excitation. Wind induced vibrations in long-span bridges can be recorded without closing the infrastructure to traffic, providing useful data for health monitoring purposes. One major problem in damage identification of large civil structures is the scarce data recorded on damaged real structures. A detailed finite element model, able to correctly and reliably reproduce the real structure behavior under ambient excitation can be an invaluable tool, enabling the simulation of several different damage scenarios to test the performance of any monitoring system. In this work a calibrated finite element model of an existing long-span suspension bridge is used to simulate the structural response to wind actions. Several damage scenarios are simulated with different location and severity of damage to check the sensitivity of the adopted identification method. The sensitivity to the length and noise disturbances of recorded data are also investigated.

The flexibility and low damping of the long span suspended cables in suspension bridges makes them prone to vibrations due to wind and moving loads which affect the dynamic responses of the suspended cables and the bridge deck. This paper investigates the control of vibrations of a suspension bridge due to a vertical load moving on the bridge deck with a constant speed. A vertical cable between the bridge deck and the suspended cables is used to install a hydraulic actuator able to generate an active control force on the bridge deck. Two control schemes are proposed to generate the control force needed to reduce the vertical vibrations in the suspended cables and in the bridge deck. The proposed controllers, whose design is based on Lyapunov theory, guarantee the asymptotic stability of the system. The MATLAB software is used to simulate the performance of the controlled system. The simulation results indicate that the proposed controllers work well. In addition, the performance of the system with the proposed controllers is compared to the performance of the system controlled with a velocity feedback controller.

Risk prevention measures were put forward about vehicle burning in operating periods for three-tower and four-span suspension bridge, combining with the characteristics of bridge vehicle burning accident. The article set up a traffic reporting system of the tankers for a bridge, and determined the report system of tankers across the bridge. Tankers should passed in the middle of the lane near the median under the guidance of bridge manager. Significant indicators were set on both ends of the bridge, so that vehicles could shunt rapidly in extreme fire conditions. Department of public security, fire control, transportation, bridges management center should get together to establish accident emergency rescue leading group, and formulated the security system of fire resistance and rescue organization for YingWuzhou Yangtze river bridge. Video monitoring alarm system and fire control facilities were set up in side pier, side tower, middle of the main span and the middle tower, which provided reliable and prevention measures for bridge operation.
