컨테이너 크레인은 강풍으로부터 보호를 받기 위한 차폐물이 없는 곳에 존재하기 때문에 이상 기후 조건에 취약성이 있는 구조물이다. 본 연구에서는 붐 각도의 변화에 따라 풍동실험과 전산유동 해석을 사용하여 컨테이너 크레인의 구조물에 대한 풍하중의 영향을 수행하였다. 그리고 75m/s의 풍속을 컨테이너 크레인에 적용하였다고 가정하였을 때 컨테이너 크레인의 풍력 내구성 설계에 사용되는 데이터를 컨테이너 크레인 설계자에게 제공하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 건축물 하중기준의 풍하중 설계기준에 따라 풍하중을 적용하였으며 풍향에 따른 영향을 분석하기 위해서 유동장을 $10^{\circ}$ 간격으로 분할하였다. 이를 바탕으로 풍동실험과 전산 유동해석을 수행하였으며 얻어진 결과들을 비교 연구함으로써 컨테이너 크레인의 구조설계에 필요한 풍하중을 분석하였다.

트윈 빌딩의 풍하중의 특성과 구조적 특성은 일반 고층건물보다 복잡하다. 이러한 특성을 조사하기 위해서 풍동실험을 통해서 트윈 빌딩의 풍압을 계측하였다. 계측된 데이터와 적합 직교 분해 기법을 이용하여 풍압의 패턴을 파악하였다. 1차 모드에서는 채널링 효과가 2차 모드에서는 와류 효과가 나타났다. 또한, 두 빌딩의 하중의 상관관계를 파악하였는데, 풍 방향 하중은 양의 상관관계를 가지며, 풍 직각 방향의 하중은 명확한 상관관계가 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 상관관계는 횡 방향 변위에도 영향을 미쳤다. 양의 상관관계를 가지면 트윈 빌딩을 연결하는 구조부재의 영향이 적게 작용한 반면에 음의 상관관계를 가지면 연결 구조부재의 영향이 횡 방향의 변위를 줄이는데 큰 영향을 미치게 되었다.

국내 조선소는 빈번하게 태풍에 의해 영향을 받는 해안에 위치하며, 풍하중에 취약한 많은 경량 구조의 시설물들로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구에서는 주변 지형과 조선소내부 건물의 영향까지 고려하여 시설물의 강풍에 대한 위험 분석을 수행하였다. 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션에 의해 대상 지역의 극한 풍속을 추정하여 전산유체역학 해석을 위한 입사풍속으로 설정하였으며, 난류 유동을 고려한 전산 유체 해석을 이용하여 시설물 표면에 발생하는 풍압과 조선소 사업장 내의 풍속 분포를 추정하였다. 결과로서 일부 시설물에는 설계 하중보다 높은 풍하중이 작용하여 보강이 요구되는 것으로 판단되며, 향후 설계 풍하중을 고려하는 경우 주변의 국부적 지형 변화와 건물 배치를 고려해야 할 것으로 나타났다.

Wind tunnel measurements on T-shaped free-standing walls and inclined free-standing walls have been carried out. Mean net pressure coefficients have been derived and compared with previous research. It was observed that the high loads at the free ends are differently distributed than those derived from the pressure coefficients for free-standing walls in EN 1991-1-4. In addition net pressure coefficients based on extreme value analysis have been obtained. The lack of correlation of the wind induced pressures at windward and leeward side result in lower values for the net pressure coefficients when based on extreme value analysis. The results of this wind tunnel study have been included in Dutch guidelines for noise barriers.

3D simulations based on an impinging jet were carried out to investigate the flow field of a steady downburst and its effects on a high-rise building by applying the SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model. The vertical profile of radial wind speed obtained from the simulation was compared with experimental data and empirical models in order to validate the accuracy of the present numerical method. Then wind profiles and the influence of jet velocity and jet height were investigated. Focusing on a high-rise building, the flow structures around the building, pressure distributions on the building surfaces and aerodynamic forces were analyzed in order to enhance the understanding of wind load characteristics on a high-rise building immersed in a downburst.

Numerical research on four typical configurations of noise mitigation structures and their characteristics of wind loads are reported in this paper. The turbulence model as well the model parameters, the modeling of the equilibrium atmospheric boundary layer, the mesh discretization etc., were carefully considered in the numerical model to improve the numerical accuracy. Also a numerical validation of one configuration with the wind tunnel test data was made. Through detailed analyses of the wind load characteristics with the inclined part and the wind incidence angle, it was found that the addition of an inclined part to a noise mitigation structure at-grade would affect the mean nett pressure coefficients on the vertical part, and that the extent of this effect depends on the length of the inclined part itself. The magnitudes of the mean nett pressure coefficients for both the vertical part and the inclined part of noise mitigation structure at-grade tended to increase with length of inclined part. Finally, a comparison with the wind load code British/European Standard BS EN 1991-1-4:2005 was made and the envelope of the mean nett pressure coefficients of the noise mitigation structures was given for design purposes. The current research should be helpful to improve current wind codes by providing more reasonable wind pressure coefficients for different configurations of noise mitigation structures.

Wind load acting on a standalone structure is different from that acting on a similar structure which is surrounded by other structures in close proximity. The presence of other structures in the surrounding can change the wind flow regime around the principal structure and thus causing variation in wind loads compared to a standalone case. This variation on wind loads termed as interference effect depends on several factors like terrain category, geometry of the structure, orientation, wind incident angle, interfering distances etc., In the present study, a three building configuration is considered and the mean pressure coefficients on each face of principle building are determined in presence of two interfering buildings. Generally, wind loads on interfering buildings are determined from wind tunnel experiments. Computational fluid dynamic studies are being increasingly used to determine the wind loads recently. Whereas, wind tunnel tests are very expensive, the CFD simulation requires high computational cost and time. In this scenario, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technique and Support Vector Regression (SVR) can be explored as alternative tools to study wind loads on structures. The present study uses these data-driven approaches to predict mean pressure coefficients on each face of principle building. Three typical arrangements of three building configuration viz. L shape, V shape and mirror of L shape arrangement are considered with varying interfering distances and wind incidence angles. Mean pressure coefficients (Cp mean) are predicted for 45 degrees wind incidence angle through ANN and SVR. Further, the critical faces of principal building, critical interfering distances and building arrangement which are more prone to wind loads are identified through this study. Among three types of building arrangements considered, a maximum of 3.9 times reduction in Cp mean values are noticed under Case B (V shape) building arrangement with 2.5B interfering distance. Effect of interfering distance and building arrangement on suction pressure on building faces has also been studied. Accordingly, Case C (mirror of L shape) building arrangement at a wind angle of 45º shows less suction pressure. Through this study, it was also observed that the increase of interfering distance may increase the suction pressure for all the cases of building configurations considered.

Most of the variable shading devices are installed outdoors, so they are greatly affected by structural safety due to external climate change, wind, rain, and snow. Especially, due to strong wind such as typhoons, safety problems may occur due to the dropout of the device. Therefore, it is necessary to secure the structural safety against the wind. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the structural behavior of the windshield to evaluate the structural safety of the variable sunshade device. In this study, we analyze the wind pressure applied to the shading material according to the change of the length of the variable shading device, and apply it to the calculation of the wind load for the structural design of the variable shading device. The CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) analysis of the structure of the sample was used to analyze wind pressure magnitude and distribution. In order to estimate the wind pressure, the maximum wind loads of the static and negative pressures acting on the structure were analyzed from numerical simulation results.

The greatest suction on the cladding of flat roof low-rise buildings is known to occur beneath the conical vortices that form along the roof edges for cornering winds. In a companion paper, a model of the vortex flow mechanism has been developed which can be used to connect the surface pressure beneath the vortex to adjacent flow conditions. The flow model is experimentally validated in this paper using simultaneous velocity and surface pressure measurement on a 1 : 50 model of the Texas Tech University experimental building in a wind tunnel simulated atmospheric boundary layer. Flow visualization gives further insight into the nature of peak suction events. The flow model is shown to account for the increase in suction towards the roof corner as well as the presence of the highest suction at wind angles of $60^{\circ}$. It includes a parameter describing vortex suction strength, which is shown to be related to the nature of the reattachment, and also suggests how different components of upstream turbulence could influence the surface pressure.

Pressure loads caused by gas, water and wind are the most important load cases in structural analysis. Often the pressure loads are approximated by constant directional loads since it is difficult to evaluate the exact value. However, the pressure load is defined as a displacement dependent one and it is necessary to consider the follower effects of the load in analysis procedure. In this study, the large deformation analysis considering geometrical nonlinearity for shell structures under pressure loads is presented. Finite element by using a three-node flat triangular shell element is formulated and the follower effects of the pressure load are included in the formulation. Some of results are presented for cantilevered beam under uniform external pressure and thin circular ring under non-uniform external pressure. The present results are in good agreement with the results available in existing literature and commercial software ABAQUS.
