Most of the previous studies on flutter derivatives have used deterministic system identification techniques, in which the buffeting forces and the associated responses are considered as noises. In this paper, one of the most advanced stochastic system identification, the data-driven stochastic subspace identification technique (SSI-DATA) was proposed to extract the flutter derivatives of bridge decks from the buffeting test results. An advantage of the stochastic method is that it considers the buffeting forces and the responses as inputs rather than as noises. Numerical simulations and wind tunnel tests of a streamlined thin plate model conducted under a smooth flow by the free decay and the buffeting tests were used to validate the applicability of the SSI-DATA method. The results were compared with those from the widely used covariance-driven SSI method. Wind tunnel tests of a two-edge girder blunt type of Industrial-Ring-Road Bridge deck (IRR) were then conducted under both smooth and turbulent flows. The identified flutter derivatives of the thin plate model based on the SSI-DATA technique agree well with those obtained theoretically. The results from the thin plate and the IRR Bridge deck helped validate the reliability and applicability of the SSI-DATA technique to various experimental methods and wind flow conditions. The results for the two-edge girder blunt type section show that applying the SSI-DATA yields better results than those of the SSI-COV. The results also indicate that turbulence tends to delay the onset of flutter compared with the smooth flow case.
