Recent Methods in the Application of Test Results to the Wind Design of Long,Suspended-Span Bridges.

摘要

The main aspects of a body of theory for the interpretation of bridge section model wind tunnel tests and the subsequent dynamic analysis of the prototype bridge under wind,especially oriented to the elastically suspended,freely-oscillating deck model,is summarized. Chapter I presents an overview of the problems of long-span bridges under wind. Chapter 2deals with bridge deck aerodynamic problems under steady flows. Chapter 3extends the ideas to problems in the turbulent natural wind.
