An analysis refinement of the Messina Strait suspension bridge project has been recently required, concerning mainly the yaw angle effects on the multi-box deck section aerodynamics and the vortex shedding at low reduced velocities $V^*$. In particular the possible interaction of the axial flow with the large cross beams has been investigated. An original test rig has been designed at this purpose allowing for both forced motion and free motion aero elastic tests, varying the average angle of attack ${\alpha}$ and the deck yaw angle ${\beta}$. The hydraulic driven test rig allowed for both dynamic and stationary tests so that both the stationary coefficients and the flutter derivatives have been evaluated for each yaw angle. Specific free motion tests, taking advantage from the aeroelastic features of the section model, allowed also the study of the vortex shedding induced phenomena.

As a new kind of construction facility for high rise buildings, the integral steel platform scaffold system (ISPS) consisting of the steel skeleton and suspended scaffold faces high wind during the construction procedure. The lattice structure type and existence of core tubes both make it difficult to estimate the wind load and calculate the wind-induced responses. In this study, an aeroelastic model with a geometry scale ratio of 1:25 based on the ISPS for Shanghai Tower, with the representative square profile, is manufactured and then tested in a wind tunnel. The first mode of the prototype ISPS is a torsional one with a frequency of only 0.68 Hz, and the model survives under extreme wind speed up to 50 m/s. The static wind load and wind vibration factors are derived based on the test result and supplementary finite element analysis, offering a reference for the following ISPS design. The spacer at the bottom of the suspended scaffold is suggested to be long enough to touch the core tube in the initial status to prevent the collision. Besides, aerodynamic wind loads and cross-wind loads are suggested to be included in the structural design of the ISPS.

A deployable missile control fin has some structural nonlinearities because of the worn or loose hinges and the manufacturing tolerance. The structural nonlinearity cannot be eliminated completely, and exerts significant effects on the static and dynamic characteristics of the control fin. Thus, It is important to establish the accurate deployable missile control fin model. In the present study, the nonlinear dynamic model of 4he deployable missile control fin is developed using a substructure synthesis method. The deployable missile control fin can be subdivided Into two substructures represented by linear dynamic models and a nonlinear hinge with structural nonlinearities. The nonlinear hinge model is established by using a system identification method, and the substructure modes are improved using the Frequency Response Method. A substructure synthesis method Is expanded to couple the substructure models and the nonlinear hinge model, and the nonlinear dynamic model of the fin is developed. Finally, the established nonlinear dynamic model of the deployable missile control fin is verified by dynamic tests. The established model is In good agreement with test results, showing that the present approach is useful in aeroelastic stability analyses such as time-domain nonlinear flutter analysis.

A series of wind tunnel tests, including 1:50 sectional model tests, 1:50 free-standing bridge tower tests and 1:70 full-bridge aeroelastic model tests were carried out to systematically investigate the aerodynamic performance of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB). The test result indicates that there are three wind-resistant safety issues the HZMB encounters, including unacceptable low flutter critical wind speed, vertical vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of the main girder and galloping of the bridge tower in across-wind direction. Wind-induced vibration of HZMB can be effectively suppressed by the application of aerodynamic and mechanical measures. Acceptable flutter critical wind speed is achieved by optimizing the main girder form (before: large cantilever steel box girder, after: streamlined steel box girder) and cable type (before: central cable, after: double cable); The installations of wind fairing, guide plates and increasing structural damping are proved to be useful in suppressing the VIV of the HZMB; The galloping can be effectively suppressed by optimizing the interior angle on the windward side of the bridge tower. The present works provide scientific basis and guidance for wind resistance design of the HZMB.

Most of the previous works on numerical analysis of galloping of transmission lines are generally based on the quasisteady theory. However, some wind tunnel tests of the rectangular section or hangers of suspension bridges have shown that the galloping phenomenon has a strong unsteady characteristic and the test results are quite different from the quasi-steady calculation results. Therefore, it is necessary to check the applicability of the quasi-static theory in galloping analysis of the ice-covered transmission line. Although some limited unsteady simulation researches have been conducted on the variation of parameters such as aerodynamic damping, aerodynamic coefficients with wind speed or wind attack angle, there is a need to investigate the numerical simulation of unsteady galloping of two-dimensional iced transmission line with comparison to wind tunnel test results. In this paper, it is proposed to conduct a two dimensional (2-D) unsteady numerical analysis of ice-covered transmission line galloping. First, wind tunnel tests of a typical crescent-shapes iced conductor are conducted firstly to check the subsequent quasisteady and unsteady numerical analysis results. Then, a numerical simulation model consistent with the aeroelastic model in the wind tunnel test is established. The weak coupling methodology is used to consider the fluid-structure interaction in investigating a two-dimension numerical simulation of unsteady galloping of the iced conductor. First, the flow field is simulated to obtain the pressure and velocity distribution of the flow field. The fluid action on the iced conduct at the coupling interface is treated as an external load to the conductor. Then, the movement of the conduct is analyzed separately. The software ANSYS FLUENT is employed and redeveloped to numerically analyze the model responses based on fluid-structure interaction theory. The numerical simulation results of unsteady galloping of the iced conduct are compared with the measured responses of wind tunnel tests and the numerical results by the conventional quasi-steady theory, respectively.

본 연구에서는 주 케이블에 횡방향 새그를 가진 자정식 현수교의 내풍안정성을 검토하기 위하여 풍동실험을 수행하고, 주형의 거동을 중심으로 그 결과를 분석하였다. 등류와 난류하에서 수행한 부분 모형 실험에서 가장 내풍안정성이 뛰어난 단면을 최종단면으로 선정하고, 전교 모형 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 또한 차후 연구를 위한 플러터 계수를 측정하여 제시하였다. 교량의 사용성과 피로문제를 검토하기 위하여 버페팅 응답을 조사하였지만, 공학적 관점에서 만족할 만한 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 주형의 항력계수가 상당히 큼에도 불구하고 횡방향 변위가 매우 작게 나타났는데, 이는 주 케이블의 횡방향 새그가 주형의 변위를 구속하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

The prediction of multimode flutter relies, to a larger extent than bimodal flutter, on accurate modeling of the self-excited forces since it is challenging to perform experimental validation by using aeroelastic tests for a multimode case. This paper sheds some light on the accuracy of predicted self-excited forces by comparing numerical predictions of self-excited forces with measured forces from wind tunnel tests considering the flutter vibration mode. The critical velocity and the corresponding flutter vibration mode of the Hardanger Bridge are first determined using the classical multimode approach. Then, a section model of the bridge is forced to undergo a motion corresponding to the flutter vibration mode at selected points along the bridge, during which the forces that act upon it are measured. The measured self-excited forces are compared with numerical predictions to assess the uncertainty involved in the modeling. The self-excited lift and pitching moment are captured in an excellent manner by the aerodynamic derivatives. The self-excited drag force is, on the other hand, not well represented since second-order effects dominate. However, the self-excited drag force is very small for the cross-section considered, making its influence on the critical velocity marginal. The self-excited drag force can, however, be of higher importance for other cross-sections.

공력탄성학적 현상들을 확인하는 방법 중 하나인 풍동실험은 축소 모델을 제작해야하기 때문에 복잡하고 비용이 많이 들며, 유동 속도의 제한이 있는 등의 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하여 풍동실험을 대체할 수 있는 Dry Wind-Tunnel(DWT) 기법이 제안되었다. 이는 지상 진동 실험 장치와 공기력을 계산하는 소프트웨어로 구성되어 실시간으로 유체의 영향을 고려해준다. 본 연구에서는 DWT의 핵심적인 요소인 실시간 공기력 계산프로그램을 개발하고, 구조 모델을 소프트웨어로 표현하여 두 시스템을 실시간 연동해 플러터 해석을 수행하였다. Matlab Simulink와 dSPACE를 이용하여 실시간 플러터 해석을 수행하고 이를 상용프로그램인 ZAERO를 사용한 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.

본 연구에서는 변위 및 가속도 응답의 저감 효과에 있어서, 유리한 형상인 $180^{\circ}$ 나선형(Helical $180^{\circ}$) 초고층건물을 대상으로 공력진동실험 수행하여 나선형 초고층건물의 공력감쇠율의 특성을 조사하였다. 공력감쇠율은 RD법(Random decrement technique)을 이용하여 평가하였다. 또한 RD법에서 부분 샘플의 개수와 초기 조건 값의 변화가 공력감쇠율에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 조사하였다. 실험 결과, 최소 2000개 이상의 부분 샘플을 이용하여 앙상블 평균을 적용하면 공력감쇠율의 불규칙한 변동의 폭을 줄일 수 있음을 검증했고, 기존 연구들과도 잘 부합되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 정방형 모형과 $180^{\circ}$ 나선형 모형의 공력감쇠율의 결과를 살펴보면, 풍방향 공력감쇠율은 건물의 형상이 다름에도 불구하고 무차원 풍속에 따른 공력감쇠율은 매우 유사한 경향을 보였다. 한편, 정방형 모형에 대한 풍직각방향의 공력감쇠율은 $180^{\circ}$ 나선형모형의 공력감쇠율의 특성과는 다른 양상을 보이는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 풍향 변화에 따른 $180^{\circ}$ 나선형 모형의 Y방향에 대한 공력감쇠율은 풍향의 변화와 상관없이, 전반적으로 0에 가까운 값을 갖는 경향이 나타났고, 무차원 풍속의 증가와 함께 변동의 폭은 작지만 점진적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 초기 조건 값의 변화에 따른 공력감쇠율을 평가한 결과, 초기 조건 값을 "응답의 표준편차" 또는 RD 함수에 대한 최적화 "${\sqrt{2}}{\times}$응답의 표준 편차"를 적용하여 평가한 공력감쇠율은 매우 유사한 결과 값과 분포를 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
