Abstract:Acceleration responses of Sutong Bridge during typhoon Haikui were recorded by structural health monitoring system (SHMS). On the basis of recorded data, the modal parameter identification of the bridge was conducted with HilbertHuang transform (HHT) and wavelet transform (WT) methods, and the identified results were compared with each other. Then, the relationship between modal damping ratios and measured mean wind speed at the bridge site was studied. Results show that the identified modal frequencies based on the HHT method are almost the same with the WTbased modal frequencies. However, the difference between modal damping ratios is larger, which exhibits that the mean values of HHTbased damping ratios are larger than those WTbased results. Besides, the windspeedrelated varying trends of modal ratios identified by the HHT method are identical with those by the WT method.
