Resumo:
Long span bridges, with main spans beyond 2.000 m become highly sensitive to wind action, particularly to flutter. An active aerodynamic control method of suppressing flutter of very long span bridges is studied in this thesis. Analytical design techniques for active control of the aeroelastic system consisting of the bridge deck and two control surfaces are presented. These techniques are based on a rational approximation of the unsteady aerodynamic loads in the entire Laplace domain, which yieds matrix equations of motion with constant coefficientes. The first part of this thesis is dedicated to the matrix formulation of the rational functions known as Minimum State and to applications to aerodynamic data obtained experimentally for various types of bridge profiles. The precision of the approximations iscalculated, and plots of the approximation functions compared to the available tabular data are drawn. Next, the state-space equations of motion describing the aeroelastic behaviour of a section of a bridge deck is presented. Given the dynamic data of a bridge structure (mass, rotational mass moment of inertia, natural frequencies, stiffness and damping ratios), and assuming that a geometric similitude exists between the profiles of the full-scale bridge deck and the sectional model from which the frequency dependent aerodynamic data was extracted, it is possible to calculate the critical velocity of that particular bridge. This part of the thesis shows that it is possible to build up a catalog of several profiles, characterized by frequency dependent aerodynamic data and the corresponding rational functions. The second part is dedicated to the formulation of the state-space equations of motion describing the aeroelastic behaviour of the entire system consisting of the bridge deck and control surfaces. The resulting equation includes new aerodynamic states which model the air flow influence on the moving deck. The equation of motion is a function of the mean velocity of the incoming wind. The dependence of the equation of motion on the wind velocity motivated the application of a constant and a variable-gain feedback concept to the problem of flutter suppressing, which are presented separatelly. The output variable-gain approach is formulated in terms of minimizing a performance index dimensionally proportional to the sum of the work done by the rotating control surfaces and the kinetic energy of the heaving velocity. A sistematic method to determine the matrix of variable control gains is shown in detail, as applied to the hypothethical case of Gibraltar bridge. Application of the variablegain feedback concept was found to be very effective in suppressing flutter of the bridge deck. Different geometric and dynamic characteristics can be introduced in the MATLAB programs included in this work, in order to obtain the critical velocities of a bridge deck alone, a bridge deck with stationary wings and a bridge with moving wings activelly controled.
