Wind induced dynamic response of the Wye bridge

Engineering Structures, 1980
Abstract As part of the research effort to improve the understanding of the effect of wind on bridges, the Transport and Road Research Laboratory (TRRL) has measured the wind-induced dynamic response of the 235 m span cable stayed box girder bridge that carries the M4 motorway over the River Wye.

Wind induced response of a cable supported stadium roof

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1992
Abstract The first section of the paper describes the results of a wind tunnel investigation of the behaviour of wind of the cable supported roof of the “Stadio dell Alpi”, Turin, Italy. The results presented and discussed include local and area-averaged pressures on the roof and the motions observed on a 1:200 aeroelastic model. It is shown that the

Study of wind-induced response of long-span structure

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1999
Abstract In this study, a wind tunnel test was conducted for an actually designed long-span structure whose roof consisted of two different shapes. Based on the data obtained from this experiment, we simulated a multi-point fluctuating wind pressure time series by the Monte Carlo method.

Wind-Induced Response Analysis of Wind Turbine System

2009 Second International Conference on Information and Computing Science, 2009
In 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 ...

Effect of building shape on wind-induced response of tall building

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1988
Abstract Wind tunnel model tests were conducted to investigate the effect of building shape on the wind-induced response of a tall building with a rectangular cross-section. It was found that horizontal slots, slotted corners and chamfered corners caused significant reductions in both the along-wind and cross-wind responses.

FULL-SCALE MEASUREMENTS OF WIND-INDUCED RESPONSE OF SYDNEY TOWER

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1983
Abstract Results of full-scale measurements of wind-induced response of Sydney Tower taken between December 1980 and August 1982 are presented in this paper. The natural frequencies of vibration were found to be 0.10 Hz and 0.50 Hz for the first mode and second mode respectively.

Wind Induced Nonlinear Response of Coupled Spar Platform

Volume 8A: Ocean Engineering, 2014
The oil and gas exploration has moved from shallow water to much deeper water far off the continental shelf. Spar platforms under deep water conditions are found to be the most economical and efficient type of offshore platform. Several Spar platforms installed in the Gulf of Mexico and North Sea proves its suitability for deep water exploration ...

The distribution of the maximum wind-induced response of structures

2016
The distribution of the maximum response of structures to wind actions is usually determined by Davenport’s model assuming that the structural response is a random stationary Gaussian process and the up-crossings of high response thresholds are rare independent events.

WIND INDUCED STATIC AND DYNAMIC RESPONSE CALCULATIONS

2006
The wind induced dynamic response calculations dealt with in this chapter focus on structural displacements for a line-like type of bridge structure. The calculations of corresponding cross sectional forces are shown in chapter 7.

Wind-Induced Response of Buildings Arranged in a Group

1995
Wind forces on buildings are usually dealt with considering the building in isolation. Controversely, about 80% of buildings are situated in an urban environment and hence surrounded by other buildings: the flow fields interfere with each other altering the wind loads — both static and dynamic — in comparison to the isolated case.
