Abstract

A new design method of MR dampers for suppression of cable vibration is proposed. The MR dampers for stay cables of Zhaobao Mountain Bridge are designed by utilizing the proposed design method, and the analysis of the cables incorporated with the designed MR dampers are carried out. The control effectiveness of the designed MR dampers to reduce the prototype cable wind-induced vibration and sinusoidal exciting using semiactive control strategy proposed by Harvot, and "Passive-off" strategy, are verified numerically and compared with each other strategy. The analytical results show that the designed MR dampers can effectively reduce the cable vibration. The availability and validity of the design method of MR dampers for cables are also simultaneously demonstrated.
