On aerodynamic stability of double-decked/trussed girder for cable-stayed “Higashi-Kobe Bridge”
AbstractA cable-stayed, double-decked/trussed girder construction employed for a project known as “Higashi-Kobe Bridge” now in the final design stage was analyzed in advance for its aerodynamic stability by testing its models in a wind tunnel. The projected composite bridge girder configuration, though found stable against vortex-induced or flutter oscillation, seemed liable to heavily buffet in the gust of natural wind. Further studied experimentally and by numerical analysis of air-flow and pressure distributions to explore the mechanism producing the buffeting oscillation, a solid (closed) parapet system instead of a post-type (open) parapet arrangement originally employed was chosen as more effective in stabilizing the bridge against the buffeting oscillation.
