The benchmark for the cable-stayed structure was created
by Dyke et al (2002) based on the detailed drawings of Bill
Emerson Memorial Bridge located in Cape Girardeau, Missouri,
USA. The construction of the bridge has been completed in
2003. Arfiadi and Hadi (2006) developed the active continuous
bounded controller, which is a modification of bang-bang
controller. The proposed system is then applied to the bridge
model. The model is then subjected to three earthquakes, they
are El Centro (1940), Mexico City (1985), and Gebze(1999). In
this work, the performance of active continuous bounded
controller is investigated compared to other controllers. The
result shows that the controller has successfully reduced the
bridge responses to all three earthquakes, except the shear at
the deck level and the displacement of the deck. Therefore,
extra measures must be taken to use the controller.
