Abstract

This paper presents a feasibility study of active seismic response control of cable-stayed bridges with reference to the Ting Kau Bridge (TKB). The TKB is a selected as a representative modern cable-stayed bridge for this vibration control study due to its unique features. Two issues explored pertaining to the development of an active structural control system for the TKB: (1) control-oriented modeling of cable-stayed bridges, and (2) control strategy development.
