Characterization of Coupled Turbulent Wind-wave Flows Based on Large Eddy Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Wind-wave interaction involves wind forcing on wave surface and wave effects on the turbulent wind structures, which essentially influences the wind and wave loading on structures. Existing research on wind-wave interaction modeling ignores the inherent strong turbulences of wind.

Component and Cladding Wind Loads for Low-Slope Roofs on Low-Rise Buildings

open access: yes, 2018
The component and cladding wind load provisions for low-sloped roofs on low-rise buildings in ASCE 7-10 were examined using measured pressure data from an aerodynamic database.

Bayesian spline method for assessing extreme loads on wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2013, Vol. 7, No. 4, 2034-2061, 2014
This study presents a Bayesian parametric model for the purpose of estimating the extreme load on a wind turbine. The extreme load is the highest stress level imposed on a turbine structure that the turbine would experience during its service lifetime.

Research on Failure Characteristics of Circular Expansion Foundation of Large Wind Turbine [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Wind power as clean energy has been widely promoted. However, during the operation of a wind turbine in a mountainous area, a large number of instability phenomena appear in the wind turbine foundation. To study the damage characteristics of a mountain wind turbine foundation, the influence of topography on a mountain wind turbine is considered ...

Identification of Wind Load Exerted on the Jacket Wind Turbines from Optimally Placed Strain Gauges Using C-Optimal Design and Mathematical Model Reduction

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Wind turbine towers experience complex dynamic loads during actual operation, and these loads are difficult to accurately predict in advance, which may lead to inaccurate structural fatigue and strength assessment during the structural design phase ...

Structural Improvements for Tall Buildings under Wind Loads: Comparative Study

open access: yes, 2017
The behavior of a very slender building is investigated under wind loads, to satisfy both strength and serviceability (comfort) design criteria. To evaluate the wind effects, wind tunnel testing and structural analysis were conducted, by two different ...

Field measurements reveal insights into the impact of turbulent wind on loads experienced by parabolic trough solar collectors [PDF]

open access: yes
To ensure efficient and reliable operation of a concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) plant, its solar collector field needs to accurately focus sunlight. The optical efficiency and structural integrity of the solar collectors is significantly influenced by wind conditions in the field.

Estimation of wind loads on a tall building by an inverse method

open access: yes, 2017
Many engineering applications require the knowledge of wind loads on structures. However, it is difficult or even impossible to measure these excitation forces from prototype structures directly.

Fatigue Loads Estimation Through a Simple Stochastic Model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
We propose a procedure to estimate the fatigue loads on wind turbines, based in a recent framework used for reconstructing data series of stochastic properties measured at wind turbines. Through a standard fatigue analysis, we show that it is possible to accurately estimate fatigue loads in any wind turbine within one wind park, using only the load ...
