Question
Computer-aided design of these structures can use a LUSAS (“lusas”) software package named for them. James Warren is best known for patenting a ubiquitous design of these structures. Arup added 89 dampers to one of these structures after synchronous lateral excitation caused its 2000 opening to be pushed back. Aeroelastic flutter, not resonance as commonly believed, was the cause of the 1940 rupture of one of these structures in Tacoma. A triangular truss is often used in these structures to mitigate buckling. Unlike in a viaduct, a catenary is formed by the cable that supports the deck of the suspension type of these structures. For 10 points, name these structures that span a river. ■END■
ANSWER: bridges [accept Millennium Bridge or truss bridge or suspension bridge; accept trusses until read]
