Abstract

The large-span transmission tower-line system's response to wind-induced vibration and vibration control are the main subjects of this paper. The first step is to establish the single transmission tower (STT) model and the transmission tower-line system (TTLS) model, and the dynamic response of the system is analyzed accordingly. Then, the numerical method is used to investigate how the tuned mass damper (TMD) affects the top vibration response of the tower-line system. Based on the dynamic characteristics, the results demonstrate a significant similarity between the transmission tower-line system and the single tower. Additionally, when the TMD's mass ratio is set to 2%, the developed TMD does have some impact on the tower-line system's in-plane bending vibration. The acceleration (STD) reduction rate is proved bigger than 30%, while the displacement (STD) reduction rate is about 10%.
