Abstract:

The paper presents the method and results of wind tunnel investigations of Strouhal number of stationary iced cable model of cable-stayed bridge. The investigations were performed in a Climatic Wind Tunnel Laboratory of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Telc. The experimental icing of the inclined cable model in the climatic chamber of the laboratory was made. The shape of the iced model was registered by a numerical photogrammetry method. For the aerodynamic tunnel investigations, the new iced cable model was made by using 3D printing method. The Strouhal number was determined within the range

The Penang Second Bridge is a new bridge under construction in Penang, Malaysia. The aerodynamic behavior of the bridge was one of the main concerns. This paper summarizes of the wind tunnel testing of the 1:40 scaled aeroelastic model testing for the free standing tower. The wind tunnel Investigations were carried out with the objective of verifying the detailed design of bridge towers through measurement of the buffeting response to turbulent wind, susceptibility to galloping instabilities and susceptibility to vortex shedding excitation in smooth oncoming flow.The test results show that exp

Abstract:

The presence of traffic on a slender long-span bridge (SLB) deck has two types of primary impacts: (1) modification of the bridge cross-section profiles, which may influence the flutter derivatives and in turn, wind-induced aeroelastic loads acting on the bridge; and (2) additional dynamic loads acting on the bridge including dynamic interactions from the vehicles. As compared to the investigations on the impact of traffic as external dynamic loads, those on the impact from the modification of bridge cross-section profiles are rather rare.

Abstract:

Accurately quantifying the aerodynamic forces acting on vehicles and long-span bridges is critical for assessing the safety of moving vehicles on bridges which are subjected to strong wind. It is necessary to consider the aerodynamic interference between vehicles and the bridge, especially for this with the bluff body section and wind barriers. However, very few investigations have been carried out to find aerodynamic coefficients of vehicles on a bridge with the bluff body section and considering the effect of wind barrier. This article therefore carried out wind tunnel tests to determine aer

Abstract:

Abstract A tunnelling project is normally initiated with a site investigation to determine the in situ rock mass conditions and to generate the basis for the tunnel design and rock support. However, since site investigations often are based on limited information (surface mapping, geophysical profiles, few bore holes, etc.), the estimation of the rock mass conditions may contain inaccuracies, resulting in underestimating the required rock support. The study hypothesised that these inaccuracies could be reduced using Measurement While Drilling (MWD) technology to assist in the decision-making p

Vortex shedding is a phenomenon that is caused by flow separation around bluff bodies. These vortices subject an elastic or elastically mounted bluff body to a periodic excitation, which may cause it to vibrate. This oscillation is small except in a range of shedding frequencies bracketing the natural frequency. Large-amplitude oscillations occur in this range that appear to control the shedding process in a fluid-structure in

Abstract:

This paper describes the design and manufacturing of active twist rotor blades for the use as secundary control of a helicopter main rotor. These blades have been developed at the DLR in Braunschweig, Germany over the last years. Special features of the blade are the capability to twist individual sections of the blade. It is planned to equip the blade so that the following test methods can be applied: strain gauges and SPR for deformations, optical measurements as a reference of the blade tip twist and pressure sensors in certain sections. I order to reduce the complexity of the blade/rotor s

Abstract:

Interdepartmental Memorandum of Understanding (IMOU) 5170 between Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN), the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) and Transport Canada Innovation Centre (TC-IC) aims to gain new insight into slow-moving landslides, and the influence of climate change, through testing conventional and emerging monitoring technologies. IMOU 5107 focuses on strategically important sections of the national railway network in the Thompson River valley, British Columbia (BC), and the Assiniboine River valley along the borders of Manitoba (MN) and Saskatchewan (SK).
