In the last thirty years, the aerodynamic nonlinearities related to the slow variation of the
angle of attack produced by large-scale atmospheric turbulence and their impact on the …

Despite extensive past research efforts, the influence of turbulence on suspension bridge
flutter stability has not been fully understood yet. Moreover, the role of large-scale turbulence …

Focus of this paper is the comparison of three different approaches to assess the
aerodynamic stability of twin-box decks: experimental free-motion tests, numerical …

Reliability based design optimization (RBDO) for deck shape and thicknesses of the steel
plates that form a box girder of long-span suspension bridges is performed considering …

Shape and size design of twin-box decks involves managing a number of highly sensitive
deck features, including aerodynamic, stiffness, and mass properties, which leads to …

The design of long-span bridges under wind places multiple demands that are frequently
contradictory in regard to the resulting deck configuration. The structural demand requires …

This research investigates aeroelastic stability of rectangular-planed air-supported
membrane structures subjected to wind actions. By employing potential theory to tackle air …

The influence of the low frequency turbulence components on the buffeting response of long
span bridges was studied through experimental tests performed on a full bridge aeroelastic …

IABSE Task Group 3.1 has the mandate to define reference results for the validation of
methodologies and programs used to study both stability and buffeting responses of long …

Aerodynamic stability and buffeting response due to turbulent wind have a fundamental
importance for long-span bridge design. However, there are no benchmark cases that can …
