Abstract: An inerter-based damper termed electromagnetic inertial mass damper (EIMD) has been demonstrated as a high-performance passive damper for bridge stay cables. However, how to design an EIMD for suppressing cable multimode ...

Abstract: On-board monitoring of track irregularities and bridge dynamic characteristics based on vehicle vibration responses provides basic data for the condition assessment of high speed railway bridges. However, the identification ...

Abstract: With the extensive studies on energy harvesting via electromagnetic devices in civil or mechanical structures, a novel dual-function device, termed electromagnetic damping and energy harvesting (EMDEH) device, has been ...

Abstract: This study proposes the design formulas of an inerter-based damper termed electromagnetic inertial mass damper (EIMD) for bridge stay cables. To maximize the modal damping ratio for a specific cable vibration mode, we ...

Abstract: The inverse dynamic analysis of vehicle-bridge (VB) systems provides a superior scheme for track irregularity identification using the onboard measurement data of vehicle dynamic responses. However, available algorithms ...
