This paper presents a formulation for determining the non-linear dynamic response of sag cables equipped with discrete oil dampers and subject to harmonic loading. The state-space method is "rst employed to convert the second order non-linear partial di!erential equations of motion of the system to

The formulation derived in Part I of this paper is applied to investigate nonlinear vibration behavior of inclined sag cables with and without oil dampers in long-span cable-stayed bridges. The inclined sag cables used in computation are also tested in the laboratory with scaled cables and oil dampe
Vibration isolators consisting of polymeric materials exhibit non-linearity in their stiffness and damping characteristics. Two different approaches towards modelling these non-linear characteristics are discussed. In one approach, experimentally obtained hysteresis loops are modelled through a suit
The Tuned Liquid Damper (TLD) is modelled numerically as an equivalent tuned mass damper with non-linear sti!ness and damping. These parameters are derived from extensive experimental results described in References 1 and 2. This Non-linear Sti!ness and Damping (NSD) model captures the behaviour of
