Characteristics of the asymmetric Stockbridge damper

The Stockbridge damper (tuned mass absorber) is used on overhead transmission power lines to suppress wind-induced vibrations. These get exposed various types of wind motions that cause them vibrate and this causes fatigue failure at the suspension clamp where maximum stress occurs. Aeolian vibration most common motion eventually, lines. This paper presents study an asymmetric damper. A set experiments were conducted according Institute Electrical Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 664 standards evaluate characteristics results obtained revealed four degrees freedom. also a relationship between magnitude resonance frequency.
