In this work we investigate the applicability of the wing-aileron-tab model for a bridge section model being actively controlled with leading and trailing edge flaps. The structural and aerodynamic model parameters have been extracted experimentally from a ...
Since the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge more than 70 years ago suppressing wind-induced instabilities has been a key aspect of the design of long-span bridges. The intensive experimental and theoretical research in wind engineering allowed research ...
In this work, we present the SmartBridge, a novel bridge section model equipped with actively controlled arrays of flaps aiming at mitigating wind-induced vibrations of long-span bridges. The active model, as well as its support structure, is described in ...
In this work, we investigate active flutter control of a bridge section model equipped with arrays of flaps. We consider three simple control algorithms based on an amplitudegain and a phase-shift for actuating the flaps and stabilizing the section model. ...
