Theoretical Study on Cable’s Vibration Control by Single TMD

Article Preview

Abstract:

The commonly used viscous dampers for cable’s vibration mitigation have some unfavorable factors, such as the damping effect is not obvious for super long stay cable, the limitation of installation position, coupling vibration, etc. The cable-tuned mass damper system vibration model is put forward to solve this problem. The optimal cable-tuned mass damper system modal damping ratio and optimum design parameters, including cable vibration order, TMD’s stiffness, TMD’s mass, and TMD’s damping, were obtained by the method of complex models. The results can provide important reference for the design of TMD for stay cable.
