Abstract

Effects of multi-mode coupling should be taken into account in computing the resonant buffeting response of some kinds of flexible structures with low damping and concentrated modes. In this paper, a new concept of “mode coupling factor” for computation of coupling effects between multi-mode resonant responses of the structures is proposed. On the base of the mode coupling factor, a modified SRSS method for computation of the resonant response contributed by multi-modes and their coupling effects of the structures is further raised. The roof structure of Shanghai Southern Railway Station is then taken as the case study to indicate the application and to verify the precision of the mode coupling factor and the modified SRSS method. The computaion results indicate that the mode coupling factor can quantitatively describe the contribution of mode coupling to the resonant response; and the modified SRSS method can make the computation of structural resonant response with consideration of mode coupling effects simpler.
