Abstract:In view of the problem that it is difficult for the traditional passive aerodynamic countermeasures to meet the flutter control requirements of long-span suspension bridges,an active vibration suppression method is proposed based on with posture-adjustable aerodynamic winglets. By introducing the Roger’s expression of the timedomain self-excited force,the dynamic characteristics of the girder-winglet system is first established in a state-space formula. This formula is optimized by system reconstruction technique to make it more reasonable and effective in response to the adjustment mechanism of the winglets. Then,through introducing a linear-quadratic function based on the control weights of the girder-winglet system’s vibration amplitude,a real-time adjustment method for the flutter stability is established from vibration state monitoring to winglet posture controlling. To verify the effectiveness and robustness of the method,a feedback control system for wind tunnel tests of the bridge sectional model is developed. It is found that the main component of the flutter control force is the total torque,which is formed by the winglets’ anti-phase lift force and amplified by the distance between the winglets. Best control effect is noticed when the phase of the windward winglet is 90 degrees in advance of the girder’s torsional vibration and the leeward winglet is lagging by degrees. The flutter critical speed can be increased by 33% when the weight of the girder is adjusted to two times of the weight of the wing plate.
