Abstract:

The article determines natural frequencies of vibration and the corresponding mode shapes of a suspension bridge with the varying bending stiffness of cables and examines variations that occur in these characteristics with respect to parametric changes in the bridge. A single span suspension steel footbridge with flexible cables has been selected as an initial model used for studying the dynamic characteristics of a suspension system. With the help of the finite elements (FE) method, parameter studies of the bridge model are presented in which vibration characteristics are studied as a functio

Abstract:

Cables are efficient structural elements that are used in cable-stayed bridges, suspension bridges and other cable structures. A significant problem which arose from the praxis is the cables’ rain-wind induced vibrations as these cables are subjected to environmental excitations. Rain-wind induced stay-cable vibrations may occur at different cable eigenfrequencies. Large amplitude Rain-Wind-Induced-Vibrations (RWIV) of stay cables are a challenging problem in the design of cable-stayed bridges. Several methods, including aerodynamic or structural means, have been investigated in order to contr

Abstract:

Suspension structures are one of the most effective roof load-bearing structures for medium to long spans. Their shape under symmetric loads is usually a square parabola or a curve close to it. The biggest drawback of such structures is their increased deformability under asymmetric loads. So-called rigid cables are used to solve this problem. However, the production of such rigid cables with a curvilinear shape is complicated, and their maintenance also has drawbacks due to the above-mentioned shape. To avoid these shortcomings, straight-line suspension structures have been used. This paper p

Abstract:

Structural cables are susceptible to the effects of high stress concentrations, corrosion, and wind-induced and other vibrations. Cables are normally the most critical elements in a cable-supported structure and their well-being is very important in the health of the structure. The laser-based vibration technique discussed in this paper is a means for health monitoring of cables and therefore the entire cable-supported structure. This technique uses a noncontact remote sensing laser vibrometer for collecting cable vibration data from distances of up to several hundreds of feet and determines i

Abstract:

The effect of rigid ends is considered in the formulation of a general two-node cable element for the analysis of cable-supported structures. The stiffness matrix of the catenary cable element was derived as the inverse of the flexibility matrix, with allowances for self-weight and pretension effects. In modeling the cables of suspension bridge, distinction is made between single cables (e.g., stay cables and hangers) and multi segment cables (e.g., main cables). The unstressed length of each cable element in terms of the pretension force is determined by a trial-and-error procedure prior to s

Abstract:

Suspension structures, known for their excellent properties, have been widely used to cover medium and large spans. Their efficiency lies in their ability to primarily withstand permanent and variable loads through tension. Consequently, suspension roof structures typically adopt a parabolic shape, which remains in equilibrium under symmetric loads. However, when subjected to asymmetric loads, such structures experience significant kinematic displacements. To reduce these displacements, suspension systems with bending stiffness, commonly referred to as “rigid” cables, are employed. Such elemen

Abstract:

Cables are the main load-bearing structural components of long-span bridges, such as suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges. When relative slip occurs among the wires in a cable, the local bending stiffness of the cable will significantly decrease, and the cable enters a local interlayer slip damage state. The decrease in the local bending stiffness caused by the local interlayer slip damage to the cable is symmetric or approximately symmetric for multiple elements at both the fixed end and the external load position.

The threaded ties had geometric defects, which were at the origin of the ruptures in service. These defects were either the threads themselves, or cracks due to fatigue, or corrosion phenomena.
