This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to give a clear and coherent understanding of the excitation mechanisms which excite cables in structures. A static and dynamic analysis is undertaken to investigate the behaviour of cables. A comprehensive theory is given for the free, linear vibrations of the suspended cable. Using this theory, a finite element model of several cable-stayed bridges are constructed with various cable configurations in a 2-D and 3-D environment. The effect of increasing the horizontal tension in the cables is analysed and the natural frequencies are compared. Design recommendations and mitigation methods are compared with international building codes. This book provides a extensive introduction into dynamics of cables and a must have guide for bridge engineers.

This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man has achieved a lot in field of Structural Engineering as it is most evident in the World's largest bridge spans, tallest structures etc. In the recent years cable stayed bridges have received more attention than any other bridge mainly, in the United States, Japan and Europe as well as in third-world countries due to their ability to cover large spans. Cable-stayed can cross almost 1000m (Tatara Bridge, Japan, Normandie Bridge, France) There is still place for innovation in Cable-stayed bridge techniques Here detail study of the cable stayed bridge is done. Historical facts, various components of the bridges, types of the pylon arrangements, type of the cable configuration arrangements has been done to give a brief idea about cable stayed bridge from the various literature surveyed. Cable Stayed Bridge is modeled in SAP 2000. Dynamic analysis in the form of Time History analysis and aerostatic effect has been considered. The Various response quantities (Bending Moment, SF, AF)with varying pylon shape and configuration with varying central span has been compared. Design of some of the component of the Cable Stayed bridge has be don

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteen years on from its last edition, Cable Supported Bridges: Concept and Design, Third Edition, has been significantly updated with new material and brand new imagery throughout. Since the appearance of the second edition, the focus on the dynamic response of cable supported bridges has increased, and this development is recognised with two new chapters, covering bridge aerodynamics and other dynamic topics such as pedestrian-induced vibrations and bridge monitoring. This book concentrates on the synthesis of cable supported bridges, suspension as well as cable stayed, covering both design and construction aspects. The emphasis is on the conceptual design phase where the main features of the bridge will be determined. Based on comparative analyses with relatively simple mathematical expressions, the different structural forms are quantified and preliminary optimization demonstrated. This provides a first estimate on dimensions of the main load carrying elements to give in an initial input for mathematical computer models used in the detailed design phase. Key features: Describes evolution and trends within the design and construction of cable supported bridges Describes the response of structures to dynamic actions that have attracted growing attention in recent years Highlights features of the different structural components and their interaction in the entire structural system Presents simple mathematical expressions to give a first estimate on dimensions of the load carrying elements to be used in an initial computer input This comprehensive coverage of the design and construction of cable supported bridges provides an invaluable, tried and tested resource for academics and engineers.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the static behavior and dynamic behavior of the Stonecutters Cable-Stayed Bridge, which is the third longest cable-stayed bridge in the world, when a group of 8 cables is damaged by corrosion. In this thesis, the reduction in cable cross-section area is used to simulate the corrosion level. The corroded cables are divided into 2 groups of 4 cables, arranged in symmetric and asymmetric distributions on both decks. A finite element bridge model was employed to perform the analysis. The validation of the model was established by comparing numerical results to the published results of the bridge. The model was then subjected to gravity load only to check the effects of corrosion level, the distance of the corroded cables and the distribution of the damaged cables on the decks' deflection and cable stresses change. In the dynamic analysis, the natural frequencies and mode shapes were compared with a reference case with no corrosion-damaged cables. A recorded wind load was applied on the deck to investigate the time-history response of the mid-span in the horizontal, vertical and torsional directions, and of the tower top in the horizontal direction. Moreover, frequency analysis was performed on the time-history response, and coupled motions at certain frequencies were observed. Numerical results as the ones presented in this thesis can complement information gathered from non-destructive testing technology in detecting corrosion-damaged stay-cables in cable-stayed bridges.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book provides a comprehensive survey on the governing phenomena of cable vibration, both associated with direct action of wind and rain: buffeting, vortex-shedding, wake effects, rain-wind vibration; and resulting from the indirect excitation through anchorage oscillation: external and parametric excitation. Methodologies for assessment of the effects of those phenomena are presented and illustrated by practical examples. Control of cable vibrations is then discussed and state-of-art results on the design of passive control devices are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this book provides structural engineers with a concise introduction to the architectural, structural and technological aspects of cable roofs, and supplies sufficient information for engineers to carry out their own designs. The improved methods for generating wind and earthquake histories have been included as the trend in modern design codes seem increasingly to require that dynamic response of other forms of non-linear structures such as guyed masts is considered at the design stage.

This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2014 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: unknown, University of Weimar, language: English, abstract: The vibration characteristic of a cable stayed bridges structure is the main axis of the study in this paper, many structural parameters are used to simulate and determine the effect of vibration on the structural performance by identifying the natural frequencies of the system and the mode shapes that can occur in the real structure. Modeling the stay cables with three famous styles of arrangements such as Harp, Semi Harp and Fan styles, and assigning roller, hinged and fixed boundary conditions on the deck support of the cable stayed bridge, in addition to using two design cases of the girders and pylons dimensions in the global structure for that purpose. Through the use of ABAQUS finite element analysis, the models were generated for each mentioned cases and the results of the frequency linear perturbation step of 10 mode shapes were determined through the simulation of the deformed shapes and the determined values of the natural frequencies of each mode for each case of interest. It was seen that the roller boundary condition was much prone to the early vibration and the stay cables of the direction near to the roller support were vibrated and stressed much more than the other direction compared with the hinged and fixed boundary conditions, and the mode shapes 7, 8, 9 and 10 were the most vibrated cases for all the boundary conditions without any distinction. The week design of the girders and the pylons has the great effect on the vibration of the stay cables, pylons and deck of the structure especially near the roller support direction due to the early vibration of the case of roller support, so the use of cross ties and damping between the stay cables and the girders are very important in the cases of significant vibrations which affect the performance of the cable stayed bridges.
