Abstract

In this paper, robust model reference sliding mode controllers are designed to reduce the magnitude of the transversal vibrations of a flexible cable-stayed bridge structure induced by a seismic excitation. The dynamic behaviour of the bridge is described by a mathematical model which takes into account the inherent nonlinearities due to the stay cable's geometry. A numerical simulation example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control schemes.
