Vibration Control of Bridge Suspenders Using TMD and RTLD—A Comparative Study
Vibration control in civil engineering structures has received much attention recently, specifically in tall buildings and slender, wind-sensitive structures. Suspender cables are fragile and sensitive elements of a suspension bridge. Extreme weather can cause significant vibrations in these cables, which can jeopardize traffic safety. As a consequence, designing effective methods to reduce such vibrations are important. In this paper, study on a relatively new technique of using a Ring Tuned Liquid Damper (R-TLD) to minimize wind induced vibrations of bridge suspenders and its comparison with a Stockbridge Damper is presented. A numerical study is carried out by modeling and analysis in MATLAB, and ideal design parameters are optimized. Also, a simulation of the vibration and forced excitation is created using SIMULINK.
