Abstract

This paper reviews various active control measures used for controlling the wind-induced vibration, which is a problem of great concern for long-span suspension bridges. Firstly, a brief discussion of passive control measures and their limitations is presented. Then, the development of active aerodynamic control and active mechanical control is comprehensively reviewed to present the characteristics and limitations of numerous control devices with emphasis on the control surfaces adopted for active aerodynamic control. Particularly, the existing challenges and suggestions for future studies are proposed for various countermeasures, especially for the control surfaces used in active control. It is expected that the information provided in this article will facilitate further research in the area of vibration control for long-span suspension bridges under various wind conditions.
