Abstract: This study presents an analytical galloping stability criterion for a three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) coupled motion of an ice-accreted conductor by using the eigenvalue perturbation method. To compare the validity of this ...

Abstract: Inertial coupling and aerodynamic stiffness play important roles in the prediction of galloping stability but have rarely been considered in previous studies. By considering both factors together, a galloping stability ...

Abstract: The time-varying mean (TVM) component has a major influence on the characterization of nonstationary wind events and associated parameters of the fluctuating components. However, it is challenging to determine the optimal ...

Abstract: This paper investigated the evolution of tropical cyclone (TC) wind threat from the past into the future and discussed its implications for the building code specifications for two vulnerable coastal cities (Hangzhou and ...
