摘要
Heavy truck traffic on highway bridges is known to produce impact loads that cause large vibrations. This phenomenon can reduce the expected service life of many highway bridges. A means to mitigating those deleterious vibrations using an automatic control system that requires no pumps or line power is proposed. A semiactive hydraulic bridge vibration absorber that can be retrofitted to an existing bridge is described. The bridge/vehicle system is modeled, and a practical feedback control that uses either strain-gauge or accelerometer readings to sense the state of the system is synthesized. The results of an experimental test of the new system indicates reductions of peak amplitudes of 65-70%.
