TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of structural vibration control, and particularly relates to an array type tuned mass damper for double-cable multi-modal high-frequency vibration control of a suspension bridge and a construction method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of modern transportation, the main span of suspension bridges continues to leap, and has gradually broken through from the kilometer level to the two-thousand-meter level. However, the long cable of a suspension bridge is a typical wind-sensitive component, and especially the parallel double-cable structural system, under complex wind environment, the parallel double cable of a long-span suspension bridge is prone to multi-modal in-phase high-frequency vibration. The multi-modal high-frequency vibration of the cable not only causes cable fatigue damage and shortens the fatigue life of the cable, but also causes huge social negative effects. Therefore, effective long-cable high-frequency vibration control technology is crucial for the safe service of the cable.
[0003] In order to effectively control the multi-modal high-frequency vibration of the long cable, the patents "Multiple tuned mass damper and cable vibration reduction method" and "Multi-directional multiple tuned mass damper for vibration reduction of a cable structure" achieve multi-modal vibration reduction control of the cable by installing multiple anti-vibration hammers on a single cable, but a single vibration reduction device can only control the vibration of one cable. For the parallel double-cable structural system, a vibration reduction device needs to be installed on each cable to control the vibration of the cable. In addition, it is difficult to adjust the frequency and damping ratio of the anti-vibration hammer, and it is difficult to achieve optimal control of the multi-modal vibration reduction of the cable. The patent "Multi-cable high-frequency vortex vibration reduction method and multiple tuned mass damper" uses a vibration reduction frame and a series of support rods to propose a multiple tuned mass damper with four main frequencies, but the vibration reduction system is too complex, the frequency and damping are difficult to adjust, and only the vibration of the cable within 4 modes can be effectively controlled. In order to control the multi-modal vibration of the cable, multiple vibration reduction devices need to be arranged along the length direction of the cable, increasing the risk of the vibration reduction device falling off. The paper "Cable damping vibration reduction technology of Nansha Bridge" proposes a damping vibration reduction system suitable for high-frequency vibration control of the cable, but the damper connection system is prone to fatigue problems when controlling the high-frequency vibration of the cable.

The protective housing 1 is fixed to the sling 9 by the third bolt 101 and the sling connection clamp 102. The hollow cylinder 3 is embedded in the upper top plate of the protective housing 1. The tuning damping element 4 includes a galvanized steel strand 5 and a copper mass block 6. A hole is drilled in the center of the copper mass block 6. The galvanized steel strand 5 passes through the center hole of the copper mass block and is fixed to the copper mass block by a second bolt 7. The upper end of the galvanized steel strand of the tuning damping element 4 passes through the hollow cylinder 3 and is fixed to the hollow cylinder 3 by a first bolt 2. The permanent magnet assembly 8 is installed on the upper side of the lower bottom plate of the protective housing.

[0032] The optimal frequency of the tuned damping element 4 described in the embodiment can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the galvanized steel wire between the red copper mass block 6 and the top plate of the protective shell 1 through the first bolt 2. The tuned damping element with the lowest frequency is located at the center position of the protective shell 1, and the other tuned damping elements are arranged to the left and right of the central tuned damping element in sequence as the frequency increases. The net spacing of the tuned damping elements should be greater than 6 times the amplitude of the sling vibration displacement at the damper installation position.
[0033] The red copper mass block 6 of the tuned damping element 4 described in the embodiment generates an eddy current damping effect when it cuts the magnetic induction lines generated by the permanent magnet group 8. The optimal damping ratio adjustment of the tuned damping element damping ratio is achieved by adjusting the thickness of the permanent magnet group below the mass block.
[0034] The working steps of the embodiment are as follows:
[0035] ① The actual vibration mode of the sling is determined by performing measurement analysis on the sling in vibration, and the installation height of the array type tuned mass damper and the number of tuned mass dampers required are selected according to the number of sling vibration modes;
