Wind-induced responses of super-large cooling towers
Journal of Central South University, 2013Traditional gust load factor (GLF) method, inertial wind load (IWL) method and tri-component method (LRC+IWL) cannot accurately analyze the wind-induced responses of super-large cooling towers, so the real combination formulas of fluctuating wind-induced responses and equivalent static wind loads (ESWLSs) were derived based on structural dynamics and ...

Numerical Analysis of Wind-Induced Response of a Wrinkled Membrane
International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2020Membranes have been popularly used in the fields of civil engineering and aerospace engineering. When wrinkled, a membrane loses its stiffness in the direction perpendicular to wrinkles and is more sensitive to wind loads. This paper numerically studied the wind-induced responses of a wrinkled membrane and their variations with respect to wind speed ...

Wind-Induced Response Analysis of Wind Turbine System
2009 Second International Conference on Information and Computing Science, 2009In this paper, the dynamic response of wind turbine system under wind action is numerically investigated. First, the random Fourier spectrum and rotating Fourier spectrum are proposed in this paper. These dynamic excitation models are built by starting with the point of view of random function and combining the understanding of the physical mechanism ...

Control of the Wind Induced Response of Structures
2013In recent years, a drive towards the construction of buildings of increasing heights and bridges of increasing span lengths has generated the most fascinating challenges in the civil engineering field. Indeed, the particular sensitivity to wind loads of such extreme structures has to be faced when designing structural systems that have to possess ...

Wind-Induced Response Characteristics of Monolayer Cable Net
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2010Monolayer cable net system supporting glass facades is structurally sensitive to wind excitations. At present, there are limited researches on its wind-induced vibration performance, therefore it appears imperative to understand the wind-resistant behavior of this type of cable net.

Wind-induced response of a large cantilevered roof
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1999Abstract The subject of this study is to clarify aerodynamic properties of a large cantilevered roof. We conducted free vibration experiments in order to investigate effects of various parameters such as mass, pitch angle, and damping ratio to wind-induced vibration of the roof.

Wind-induced structural response of a large telescope
SPIE Proceedings, 2004In May of 2000, the construction progress of the Gemini South 8m telescope at Cerro Pachon in Chile was such that the telescope and dome were installed and able to move, but the primary mirror had not been installed. This provided a unique opportunity to make extensive tests of the structure in its nearly-completed state, including a modal impact ...

Measurement of wind-induced response of buildings using RTK-GPS
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2002Abstract Accelerometers have been used for field measurements of wind-induced responses of buildings. However, wind-induced response consists of a static component, i.e. a mean value, and a dynamic fluctuating component. The static component is difficult to measure by accelerometers.

The wind‐induced response characteristics of atypical tall buildings
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2007AbstractA tall building reacts sensitively to winds because the wind force increases according to the height and shape of the building. Various shapes of tall buildings and their aerodynamic characteristics have been studied extensively. For structural design and occupant comfort, the dynamic displacement of a tall building must be maintained within ...
