Abstract EN

This paper investigates the suppression of galloping in a suspension bridge due to wind loads.

The galloping phenomenon can be destructive due to the high-amplitude oscillations of the structure.

Two controllers are proposed to generate the control force needed to suppress the vertical galloping in the suspended cables and in the bridge deck.

SIMULINK software is used to simulate the controlled system.

The simulation results indicate that the proposed controllers work well.

In addition, the performance of the system with the proposed controllers is compared to the performance of the system controlled with a tuned mass damper.
