Rain-Wind-Induced Vibration Control for Long Span Transmission Tower

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, multiple tuned liquid dampers control for rain-wind-induced response of long span transmission tower is investigated. Equations of motion for a structure-TLD system are derived. According to the mechanism of vibration control, rain-wind-induced vibration control for tower model with multiple tuned liquid dampers is carried out by using numerical simulation. Three-dimensional finite element model of tower based on a real project is established. Rain-wind load time history is simulated based on wind and rain theory. Time history curves and the maximum responses without and with tuned liquid damper under rain-wind excitation are analyzed and discussed. The results show that the tuned liquid damper could decrease the rain-wind-induced response of long span transmission tower, and the device could be installed in tower when the response too large.
