Abstract
Steel-concrete composite girder bridges, in essence, are thin-walled structures, the dynamic responses of which will be greater than those of a typical Euler–Bernoulli beam under the train-bridge interaction because of the shear lag and interface slip. Thus, in this study, the dynamic analysis model of a train-composite box girder bridge-multiple tuned mass damper (MTMD) coupling system is proposed, with the derived dynamic equations of this time-varying system. Meanwhile, the program is compiled using the Newmark-β method for the solution, combined with the optimization toolbox to solve the complex optimization design problems of MTMDs involved. Finally, factors affecting the vibration-damping effect are studied, such as the mass ratio of MTMDs, the number of trains, and the slip and shear lag of the composite box girder bridge.
