The growing population and increasing demand for surface transportation have highlighted
the importance of maintaining safe and reliable civil infrastructures for daily use. Among all …

Stay cables in cable-stayed bridges are subjected to various types of dynamic excitation
mechanisms under environmental loads. The excited vibrations can have a large amplitude …

Installation of transverse dampers near the cable-deck anchorage is a commonly used
method for the vibration mitigation of stay cables. Recent studies have demonstrated that the …

This work proposes a new technique to estimate cable tension force from measured natural
frequencies. The proposed method is able to simultaneously identify tension force, flexural …

In-operation vibration monitoring for complex mechanical structures and rotating machines
is of key importance in many industrial areas such as aeronautics (wings and other …

Previous studies have shown superior control performance in mitigating vibrations of stay
cables by using passive control devices such as negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) and …

" The fifty years of experience of construction of cable-stayed bridges, since their
establishment as a new category among the classical types, have brought an immense …

Long-span bridges have low vibration frequencies and small intrinsic damping, and hence
are subjected to large-amplitude vibrations, eg, vortex-induced vibrations (VIVs), which …

Recent studies have demonstrated that inerter‐based dampers exhibit superior performance
in mitigating cable vibration over conventional passive viscous dampers (VDs). This paper …

This study systematically investigates the dynamic characteristics of a stay cable with an
inerter damper installed close to one end of a cable. The interest in applying inerter dampers …
