Abstract: This paper examines the mean wind profiles of tropical cyclones (TCs) toward 1,000-m height with a low-level jet (LLJ) feature over the Southeast China Sea based on the newly released fifth-generation atmospheric reanalysis ...

Abstract: As the importance of wind-induced internal pressure for building safety has continually been highlighted, increasing attentions have been paid to numerical methods for estimating fluctuating internal pressures, leading to ...

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: Galloping of iced conductors is a kind of self-excited aeroelastic vibration at low frequency and large amplitude causing various damage to transmission tower-line systems. This paper proposes viscoelastic-damping interphase ...

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: In current galloping studies, the shape and surface of ice accretion are usually simplified to the regular and smooth properties, although they have the probability of irregularity and roughness in real conditions. To study ...

Abstract: Equivalent static wind loads (ESWLs) play an important role in the wind-resistant design of tall buildings. Traditionally, ESWLs of a tall building are derived based on the equivalence of the top deflection or the base ...

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 ...

Abstract: Failure accidents of transmission lines due to excessive wind-induced displacements pose a serious threat to the operational stability and security of the electric power grid. A Bayesian approach is proposed to assess the ...
