Topology optimization of buildings subjected to stochastic wind loads
Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics, 2021Traditionally, the main structural system of tall buildings is designed iteratively to resist extreme wind loads, which provides safe, but typically suboptimal building systems. Topology optimization provides a general approach to obtain optimal material

Fragility analysis of a long-span transmission tower–line system under wind loads
, 2020Numerous transmission towers have collapsed due to experiencing strong winds; therefore, the purpose of this article is to investigate the collapse mechanism and the anti-collapse performance of a long-span transmission tower–line system.

This paper investigated the influence of the turbulent wind fluctuations in the lowest 10 m of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), depending on the surface roughness of the terrain surrounding a heliostat field, on the required dimensions and material ...

Although forces induced by winds account for only about 15% of the total forces acting on most offshore structures during periods of intense wind, water wave and current excitation, it is useful to review many of the salient features of wind loadings for two reasons.

Full-scale test and its numerical simulation of a transmission tower under extreme wind loads
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2019Accurate simulation of overhead transmission towers under extreme wind loads is complicated due to the eccentrically connected angle section members. First, a full-scale 230 kV suspension tower is manufactured, to which eight loading patterns are applied.

In most wind load codes, the wind direction is assumed to be the same along the height in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). But actually, due to the Earth's rotation (Coriolis force), the wind direction in the ABL changes along the height.

Wind loads on transmission tower bodies under skew winds with both yaw and tilt angles
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2019Transmission tower networks play an important role in the infrastructure system of many countries around the world. Many studies have been directed towards the evaluation of aerodynamic coefficients of the vertical tower body sections of transmission ...

Cross-arms are key structural components of transmission towers usually located horizontally on the upper part and therefore bear large wind loads that contribute a lot to the base bending moment.
