Stay cables, such as used in cable-stayed bridges, are prone to vibration due to their low inherent damping characteristics. It has been reported that a semiactive control system using MR dampers could potentially achieve both the better performance compared to a passive control system and the adaptability with few of the detractions. However, a control system including a power supply, a controller and sensors is required to improve the control performance of MR dampers. This complicated control system is not effective to most of large civil structures such as long-span bridges and high-rise buildings. This paper proposes a smart damping system which consists of an MR damper and the electromagnetic induction (EMI) part that is considered as an external power source to the MR damper. The control performance of the proposed damping system has been compared with that of the passive-type control systems employing an MR damper and a linear viscous damper.

The recent development of PSC girder bridges are mostly dedicated for optimization of self-weight, simplification of girder section for easy construction and minimization of maintenance efforts. Moreover some of those bridges are required as a landmark facility which raises the image of locality and harmony with surroundings. An extradosed bridge is one of the best alternates which not only covers the longer span than PSC box girder and also performs the role of landmark facility with much cheaper cost than cable stayed bridge. Hyundai is carrying out the construction of unique style extradosed bridge which have central suspension system and uniform girder depth named Keong-An grand bridge on the Sungnam-Janghowon Express highway. In this paper, major process of design and construction features of Keong-An bridge is presented.

The accurate determination of cable tension is important to the monitoring of the condition of a cable-stayed bridge. When applying a vibration-based formula to identify the tension of a real cable under sag, stiffness and boundary conditions, the resulting error must not be overlooked. In this work, by resolving the implicit frequency function of a real cable under the above conditions numerically, indirect methods of determining the cable force and a method to calculate the corresponding cable mode frequency are investigated. The error in the tension is studied by numerical simulation, and an empirical error correction formula is presented by fitting the relationship between the cable force error and cable parameters ${\lambda}^2$ and ${\xi}$. A case study on two real cables of the Shanghai Changjiang Bridge shows that employing the method proposed in this paper can increase the accuracy of the determined cable force and reduce the computing time relative to the time required for the finite element model.

This paper presents a spatial catenary cable element for the nonlinear analysis of cable-supported structures. An incremental-iterative solution based on the Newton-Raphson method is adopted for solving the equilibrium equation. As a result, the element stiffness matrix and nodal forces are determined, wherein the effect of self-weight and pretension are taken into account. In the case of the initial cable tension is given, an algorithm for form-finding of cable-supported structures is proposed to determine precisely the unstressed length of the cables. Several classical numerical examples are solved and compared with the other available numerical methods or experiment tests showing the accuracy and efficiency of the present elements.

Excessive cable vibrations are detrimental to cable-stayed bridges. Increasing the system damping of cables is a key solution to resolve this severe problem. Equations representing the dynamic characteristics of an inclined cable with a Deck-Anchored Damper (DAD) or with a Clipped Tuned Mass Dampers (CTMD) are reviewed. A theoretical comparison on the performance of cable vibration reduction between the cable-DAD system and the cable-CTMD systems is thoroughly discussed. Optimal system modal damping for the free vibration and transfer functions for the forced vibration for the two cabledamper systems are addressed and compared in detail. Design examples for these two different dampers are also provided.

Now a days, the fabrication and election skills have improved in Korea. Due to taking the vertical clearance and a point of beauty, the election of the suspension and the cable-stayed bridges whose span length can be lengthened have been increased. Accordingly, there are link areas between the bridges by cables and other bridges. These dynamic behaviors are different from others. When the vehicles and trains run on the link area, the member force and the fatigue behavior which are occurred to the structure have different values depend on the velocity. On this paper, we analyze the bridge behavior by means of the tine history analysis depend on to velocity, the number of vehicles, single and double way.

Stay cables, such as used in cable-stayed bridges, are prone to vibration due to their low inherent damping characteristics. Recently some studies have shown that active and semiactive control system using MR damper can potentially achieve both higher performance levels than passive control system and adaptability with few of the detractions. However, a control system including a power supply, controller, and sensors is required to maximize the performance of the MR damper and this complicated control system is not effective to most of large civil structures. This paper proposes a smart complex damping system which consists of toggle system and MR dampers by introducing electromagnetic induction(EMI) system as an external power source to MR damper. The performance of the proposed damping device has been compared with that of the passive-type control systems employing a MR damper, a linear viscous damper, and EMI system.

Modeling of magnetorheological (MR) dampers for cable vibration control to facilitate the design of even more effective and economical systems is still a challenging task. In this study, a parameter-adaptive three-element model is first established for a full-scale MR damper based on laboratory tests. The parameters of the model are represented by a set of empirical formulae in terms of displacement amplitude, voltage input, and excitation frequency. The model is then incorporated into the governing equation of cable-damper system for investigation of open-loop vibration control of stay cables in a cable-stayed bridge. The concept of optimal voltage/current input achieving the maximum damping for the system is put forward and verified. Multi-mode suboptimal and Single-mode optimal open-loop control method is then developed. Important conclusions are drawn on application issues and unique characteristics of open-loop cable vibration control using MR dampers.

AASHTO LRFD 및 도로교한계상태설계기준에서는 신뢰도 기반 활하중 모델로부터 결정된 트럭하중과 차로하중을 동시에 재하하도록 하고 있으며, 트럭하중은 충격계수를 고려하되 차로하중은 충격계수를 적용하지 않도록 규정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 중앙경간 230m, 400m 및 540m의 멀티케이블 강합성 사장교를 대상으로 트럭하중과 차로하중이 동시에 주행하는 경우에 대해 차량-교량 상호작용 해석을 수행하고 케이블과 보강거더의 충격계수를 평가하였다. 트럭하중은 6-자유도의 차량 모델을 사용하였으며, 차로하중은 일련의 1축 차량이 연행해서 주행하는 것으로 모사하였다. 교량의 감쇠비가 충격계수에 미치는 영향을 평가하였으며, 충격에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자인 노면조도와 주행속도를 해석변수로 고려하였다. 노면조도는 ISO 8608 규정에 근거하여 랜덤 생성하였으며, 차량-교량 상호작용해석 시 노면조도는 트럭하중에만 적용하였다. 한편, 사장교의 충격계수 평가를 위해 실무에서 사용되고 있는 영향선 기법에 의한 충격계수를 동적 상호작용 해석에 의한 결과와 비교하였다.
