Abstract The purpose of my project is to investigate and develop bridge deck designs on suspension bridges that would, in principle and in experimentation, stabilize itself aerodynamically in dangerous situations involving dynamic loads, particularly wind. As well, this project will hopefully bring new applications and further research that might be used in the future construction of suspension bridges, and also in other civil engineering projects.
