Long-span structures are susceptible to wind-induced vibrations due to their low oscillation frequency and low mechanical damping. Although many efforts have been made in the past to model vortex-induced vibration of circular cylinders, limited studies can be found for non-circular cross sections representative of long-span bridge decks. A model for vortex-induced vibration analysis of long-span bridge is presented in this paper. The aeroelastic equation of motion of the model, a procedure to extract aeroelastic coefficients from wind tunnel experiments, analysis of full-scale structures incorporating loss of spanwise correlation of aeroelastic forces, and comparison between simulated and full-scale measured responses on a twin deck bridge (Fred Hartman bridge, Baytown, Texas) are discussed. Six bluff sections – Deer Isle bridge, Tsurumi bridge, Fred Hartman bridge, generic rectangular, H shaped, and circular models – were considered in this research program.
