Abstract
Stability of long span suspension bridges under wind forces is a very important concern. Sensitivity analysis of the wind speed leading to flutter with regards to the mecanical parameters of the bridge deck can be very helpful for the designer. In this paper this methodology is presented and numerical values for two bridges are enclosed.
