M. Abdelrohman et H. Askar, ACTIVE CONTROL OF NONLINEAR VIBRATIONS IN CABLE-STAYED BRIDGES BY TENDONS, Journal of the University of Kuwait. Science, 21(2), 1994, pp. 153-164
This paper shows the active control of nonlinear vibration in cable st
ayed bridges using a tendon mechanism and investigates the effect of n
eglecting high order modes in the design of the control law on the con
trolled response. The paper finds out that many vibrational modes shou
ld be considered in the design of the velocity feedback control law, i
n order to obtain a stable and damped controlled response as designed.
