Mumbai: Metro bridge collapses near Andheri
Posted by James on October 5, 2012 · 25 Comments
In Mumbai, a section of a metro bridge that was under construction in suburban Andheri has collapsed. Eight people are reported injured after a 50-metre section of the Andheri-Ghatkopar bridge, a major project, came crashing down around 4.30 this evening.
The Tacoma Narrows Bridge nicknamed Galloping Gertie collapsed due to vibration caused by high winds. The suspension bridge on Puget Sound had only been open to traffic for a few months. www.itnsource.com
It? just needs a blow job.
It just needs a blow? job.
The Tacoma Narrows Bridge was destroyed because the vibration? frequencies of wind blowing through the bridge matched the natural frequency of the bridge.
1. Vibration is not necessarily directional. 2. If flutter? actually worked how you describe it then it is not omnidirectional. 3. The bridge did resonate, self-induced by aeroelastic flutter. 4. The bridge was most definitely vibrating – to suggest otherwise is inconceivable.
maanaatti?
you watched minute physics bitch.. & you didnt even give credit? to the source
GUYS. THE BRIDGE WAS NOT RESONATING. understand that the bridge was forced to the side by the wind. then gravity brought it swinging the other way, giving the wind more surface area to push on. from there the swinging elevated until the bridge couldn’t? handle it anymore. the phenomenon is called aeroelastic flutter, not resonance, which would indicate the bridge was vibrating, which it wasn’t. vibration is directional, the flutter was omnidirectional, hence the difference.
resonance…?
did anyone watch minute physics? it didnt collapse because of vibrations,? but because of aeroelastic flutter
nothin’? some duct tape can’t fix
watch this 58 sec – video from Volgograd, Russia

haha a little bundo? and primer
A much better and more familiar example is? a swing; by pushing with a small force at the natural frequency, you can make a person go very high.
Fatally injured, what a P.C? way to say killed.
It? just needs a paint job.
yeah, evetyhing gives off a frequency and when it becomes equal, it does? this and vibrates, hense how people can break glasses by singing.
by dancing?
I’m sorry but my Vibration’s course’s Professor said that it’s not correct speaking about resonance. I’m Italian, where are you from? Tomorrow? I’ll speak to my professor again and I’ll ask for a rightly motivation
Sorry,my physics? book says it,and I learned it last week at school..:-) Probably I couldnt wrote it down perfectly here.
It is not possible resonance, because it is impossible? that the frequency of the wind is the same of that of the bridge. There is no wind whit just a frequency.
Its because of the resonance..the wind? is blowing,and its having an effect on the bridge..the frequencies are equal. Hope u understand,sry for my english. 🙂 :-$
I just came home from a bar and im really drunk.. hit me up on my site..{ meetyourfling } DOT? com

lol how? does a bridge do that?
saludos desde? la UCA, alto puente
We love our wind in Washington. The next bridge will be the Astoria OR to Magler Washington. That bridge? has some bad rust!
