Turbulence Effect on Flow Around Circular Cylinder
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Free‐stream turbulence has significant effects on the flow around a circular cylinder. Wind tunnel experiments were conducted on a smooth circular cylinder to investigate the effect of free‐stream turbulence, particularly ...
Damping Increase in Building with Tuned Mass Damper
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Sydney Tower, the tallest building in Australia, is 820ft (250m) high and with the base of the structure anchored on the roof of a 15 storey building, it stands 1000ft (305m) above street level. The tower is one of the ...
Aerodynamic Devices for Tall Buildings and Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wind tunnel tests were conducted to investigate the effects of some aerodynamic devices on the wind‐induced responses of tall buildings and structures. It was found that the fitting of small fins or vented fins to a square ...
Active Control of Cross Wind Response of 76-Story Tall Building Using a Fuzzy Controller
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper focuses on the benchmark problem application regarding the vibration control of tall buildings under cross wind excitation. The building under consideration is the 76-story, 306-m tall reinforced concrete office ...
