1. Conception
Conception
• Œuvre of René Greisch
• Total length : 261 m entirely made of steel
• The 164m main span is a bowstring bridge with a central boxed arch, a box-girder and 14-inclined full locked cables
Conception
• A new modern ward of high qualitative architecture
• The bridge has been opened end 2003 and was awarded the 2004 Dutch steel prize.

• In order to anticipate for low structural damping, and thus mitigate the pedestrian induced vibration, it was decided at early stage of design to allow installation of Tuned Mass Dampers.
2. Experimental Dynamic Behaviour of the Footbridge without TMD
Experimental Modal Analysis• using residual vibration levels, an Operating Deformation Shape (ODS) measurement was
conducted using natural excitation (microseismic excitation, air motion).
• ODS are performed by measuring Frequency Response Functions (FRF) between each point of a mesh and a fixed reference point.These FRFs contain phase and amplitude relationship between all points of the mesh.
• A reference vibration transducer was placed at 45 degrees in the vertical – transversal plane.Two roving bi-dimensional (Vertical – Transversal) velocimeterswere then successively moved on the 44 points representing the structure.
• Thus a total of 44 Frequency Response Functions (FRFs)were computed between the reference point and theroving points.
• The FRFs were FFT computed in the0–25Hz frequency range with aresolution of 31.2mHz.
Natural Frequencies• Natural frequencies emerge from residual vibration levels (excitation: residual wind or microseismic excitation). The
picture below shows the acceleration frequency content calculated from a 10 minutes acquisition of residual vibrations.
• The first natural frequencies are found at :– 0.97 Hz in the horizontal direction,– and 1.47 Hz, 1.66 Hz and 2.34 Hz in the vertical direction :

Damping Ratios• Vibration amplitude decreases after harmonic excitation (10 to 15-persons group
bending knees simultaneously) is stopped.
• Several methods are usually used for damping estimation :– Logarithm decrement if only one mode is visible– Hilbert transform method or Prony-Pisarenko algorithm if several modes co-exist.
• The couples of frequency / damping parameters of the first modes provide a fairly complete characterization of vibration harshness of the structure.

Acceleration levels• Some of these values (corresponding to case of vandalism) exceed the acceptance criteria
usually accepted for footbridges (both for low frequency motion, typically 0-3Hz) : – 0.2 m.s-2 in horizontal directions,– 0.7 m.s-2 in the vertical direction.
• The measurements confirm that these levels may be easily reached on the structure.

Dynamic Diagnosisof the Structure
• HORIZONTAL DIRECTION : Damping of the first horizontal mode is satisfactory (1.2%)
• VERTICAL DIRECTION : the frequency / damping couple is clearly unfavourable :
– The three first natural frequencies in the vertical direction are inside the frequency range of pedestrian excitation (walking fundamental frequency is mainly between 1.5 Hz and 2.5 Hz).
– The related damping ratios are very low, from 0.3% to 0.6%: a damping ratio of 0.3% induces a magnification factor of roughly 160 at resonance (compared to static response).
• ⇒ DECISION : add damping with TMDs to the first three vertical modes, since :
– Their frequencies are located inside the walking frequency range : 1.47 Hz, 1.66 Hz, 2.34 Hz– Their damping is very low : 0.3%, 0.6 %, 0.5%.– Vertical acceptance criteria was easily approached with only 25 persons randomly walking,– Their frequencies are mainly represented in the measured response spectrum during random
walking.

% Modal Mass
• Optimisation of the TMD parameters (mass, frequency, damping ratio) was carried out using analytical equations of 2-DOF mass-spring systems (see Mechanical Vibrations, Den Hartog, 1956) :
• A set of 3 TMD units (with a total mass of 10 540 kg) was installed at mid-span and quarter span, in order to damp the three first vertical modes of the structure, using the available space.
• The TMDs were designed and built by GERB Company in France.
4. Performance Checking of the TMD
• Testing was carried out after TMD setup : damping ratios were measured.
• The structural damping of the first vertical modes was about 3 to 5 times larger with TMD than without TMD.
• Notice that the installed TMDs increase damping of the first horizontal mode further on.

5. Conclusion
Conclusion(case of TMD installation on an existing footbridge)
• It was shown that the application of TMDs efficiently brings damping to an underdamped structure. Here, the TMD mass was particularly low (1.3 to 2 % of modal mass), however damping was noticeably increased (x3 to x5).
• Owners usually ask for a maximum acceleration level guarantee. This is uneasy, since the excitation is not under our control (pedestrians)
• it is difficult to accurately predict (by computing) the future damping, although its should be a contractual goal for this type of project
• The prediction of TMDs effect on Footbridge’s damping needs further investigations.
