Abstract:

Main types of aero-elastic instability for bridges with spans over 100 meters are considered. Methods for investigation of bridge oscillations in a special-purpose experimental facility - the Landscape Wind Tunnel - are described. Examples of tests with elastic similar models of bridges are given, and measurements to mitigate dangerous oscillations early in the bridge design process are described.
