Additional information
Buffet and flutter oscillation suppression in suspension bridges is increasingly important as centre-span lengths increase. At the same time traditional remedial measures based on stiffening the bridge structure are becoming less viable. We demonstrate that aerodynamic flutter and buffeting can be suppressed with a trailing-edge flap that is controlled by a passive mechanical compensator. This paper appeared in a special issue celebrating the eightieth birthday of David Mayne who was the 2009 IEEE Technical Field Award recipient; the third ever UK recipient. This special issue has four IEEE Technical Field Award recipients amongst the authorship. Funded by EPSRC grant EP/H026509/1.
