With the development of bridge structures towards being light weight and having a large span , overall flexibility, and, hence, wind sensitivity, increases. Flutter is one pivotal factors considered in design operation stage for long-span cable-stayed bridges due to its devastating impact, often intrigued by relatively low instability caused speed. This paper presents reliability theory-based n...

Operational modal testing and analysis is a direct and efficient way to understand the dynamic properties of full scale bridges. For the purpose of bridge modeling, monitoring, condition assessment, damage detection, maintenance and rehabilitation, this paper is intended to share ideas and experiences that are devoted to innovative applications in full scale bridges when the bridge modal parame...

A seismic damage identification method for composite cable-stayed bridges has been developed. The proposed is based on a Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Wavelet Network (WN). shaking table test of bridge employed to verify the accuracy WNSVM method; results show that nonlinear Finite Element Model (FEM) can correctly simulate single-tower bridge, learning samples be produced FEM. structural id...

Verification of the serviceability limit state of vibrations due to traffic live loads can be neglected in conventional types of concrete road bridges but becomes critical in the design of slender structures like Under-Deck CableStayed bridges. The novelty of the work presented in this article is that an innovative vehicle-bridge interaction model is employed, in which realistic wheel dimension...
