Patent

CA 2677741

Provided is a system and method for actively damping tension members (10) by modulating the natural frequency of shape metal alloys. By incorporating shape metal alloys into tension members, such as suspension ropes or cables, the frequency of the tension member can be modulated to prevent potentially destructive resonance with natural exciting forces.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé pour des organes de tension à amortissement actif par modulation de la fréquence naturelle d'alliage à mémoire de forme. En incorporant des alliages à mémoire de forme dans des organes de tension, tels que des cordes ou des câbles de suspension, la fréquence de l'organe de tension peut être modulée pour prévenir une résonance potentiellement destructrice avec des forces d'excitation naturelles.
