Effect of LRB Position for Vibration Reduction System of Self-Anchored Cable-Stayed Suspension Bridge

Abstract

Larger displacement and inter-force response of the structure will be produced when self-anchored cable-stayed suspension bridge in longitudinal earthquake. Engineering practice proved that the viscous damper has obviously damping effect for structure. For the vibration reduction system of self-anchored cable-stayed suspension bridge, whose main tower is set viscous damper. This essay does the nonlinear time history analysis under the longitudinal earthquake about the vibration reduction system that considering the LRB putted in different location. Compared with the damping system that only set viscous damper, analysis results show that inter-force and displacement of control section and control node are reduced greatly in hybrid vibration control.
