On Nonlinear Oscillations in a Suspension Bridge System
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we study nonlinear oscillations in a suspension bridge system governed by two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. By applying the Leray-Schauder degree theory, it is proved that the suspension bridge system has at least two solutions, one is a near-equilibrium oscillation, and the other is a large amplitude oscillation.

Bifurcation of Periodic Solutions in Symmetric Models of Suspension Bridges
We consider a nonlinear model for time-periodic oscillations of a suspension bridge. Under some additional restrictive assumptions we describe our model by a standard bifurcation scheme which allows us to use global bifurcation theorems and make some new conclusions.

Active vehicle suspension system is designed to increase the ride comfort and road holding of vehicles. Due to limitations in the external force produced by actuator, the design problem encounters the constraint on the control input. In this paper, a novel nonlinear controller with the input constraint is designed for the active suspension system. In the proposed method, at first, a constrained...

متن کاملLarge Torsional Oscillations in a Suspension Bridge: Multiple Periodic Solutions to a Nonlinear Wave Equation
We consider a forced nonlinear wave equation on a bounded domain which, under certain physical assumptions, models the torsional oscillation of the main span of a suspension bridge. We use Leray–Schauder degree theory to prove that, under small periodic external forcing, the undamped equation has multiple periodic solutions. To establish this multiplicity theorem, we prove an abstract degree th...
