Fluctuating Wind

The Shenzhen New Railway Station (SNRS) has roof dimensions of 450 m long and 408 m wide. This paper presents the results of wind loads acting on the large-span roof structure. In the wind tunnel test, wind-induced pressures including mean and fluctuating components were measured from the roof of a 1:200 scale SNRS model under suburban boundary layer wind flow configuration in a boundary layer wind tunnel of HD-2 at Hunan University. Based on the data obtained simultaneously from the wind tunnel tests, the distributions of the mean and fluctuating wind pressure coefficients and the characteristics of probability density functions of wind pressures of typical pressure taps were analyzed in detailed. The outcomes of the experimental study indicate that: (1) The maximum mean negative wind pressure coefficients on the roof occur at the windward leading edge region, where the maximum fluctuating wind pressure coefficients occur also in this region; (2) There are some differences of the maximum mean negative wind pressure coefficients and RMS wind pressure coefficients under conditions with different number of trains inside the station, but such effects on the overall pressure distributions on the whole roof are negligible; (3) There are clearly negative skewed distributions for some pressure taps at the windward leading roof edge and much longer negative tails are observed, which follow Non-Gaussian distributions. The results presented in this paper are expected to be of considerable interest and of use to researchers and professionals involved in designing complex long-span roof structures.

Engineers, architects, planners and designers must carefully consider the effects of wind in their work. Due to their slender and flexible nature, long-span bridges can often experience vibrations due to the wind, and so the careful analysis of wind effects is paramount. Traditionally, wind tunnel tests have been the preferred method of conducting bridge wind analysis. In recent times, owing to improved computational power, computational fluid dynamics simulations are coming to the fore as viable means of analysing wind effects on bridges. The focus of this paper is on long-span cable-supported bridges. Wind issues in long-span cable-supported bridges can include flutter, vortex-induced vibrations and rain–wind-induced vibrations. This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of research on the use of wind tunnel tests and computational fluid dynamics modelling of these wind issues on long-span bridges.

In this paper, the wind field around the flat box girder of a long-span bridge under 0o attack angle was investigated by the numerical wind tunnel technique, which can not only get the distributions of the pressure, velocity and vortex in the flow field, but also obtain the various aerodynamic parameters of the bridges. The velocity profiles were obtained, and the coefficient of tri-component from the numerical simulations was in good agreement with that from the wind tunnel test, which demonstrated that it was reliable and feasible to utilize the numerical wind tunnel technique to simulate the wind field and certificate the coefficient of tri- component of the bridge.
