Wind Resistant Design of Bridges in Japan by Yozo Fujino,Kichiro Kimura,Hiroshi Tanaka Pdf

For long-span bridges, wind action is a dominant factor in their safety and serviceability. A large number of long-span bridges have been built in Japan over the past 30 years, and tremendous amounts of research and technical development have been accomplished in wind-resistant design. This book is a compilation of the results of active research and development. Wind-resistant design standards generated in Japan are described in the first few chapters. Then comes information such as design wind speed, structural damping, wind tunnel tests, and analyses, which provide the basis of the design standards. Wind-induced vibrations and their control of girders, towers, cables, and other features are explained with examples of field measurements. Comprehensive listings of Japanese experience in vibration control are also presented. Because achieving particularly dynamic safety against wind is still not an easy task, these data and information will be valuable assets for the wind-engineering and bridge-engineering communities.

Wind Effects on Cable-Supported Bridges by You-Lin Xu Pdf

As an in-depth guide to understanding wind effects on cable-supported bridges, this book uses analytical, numerical and experimental methods to give readers a fundamental and practical understanding of the subject matter. It is structured to systemically move from introductory areas through to advanced topics currently being developed from research work. The author concludes with the application of the theory covered to real-world examples, enabling readers to apply their knowledge. The author provides background material, covering areas such as wind climate, cable-supported bridges, wind-induced damage, and the history of bridge wind engineering. Wind characteristics in atmospheric boundary layer, mean wind load and aerostatic instability, wind-induced vibration and aerodynamic instability, and wind tunnel testing are then described as the fundamentals of the subject. State-of-the-art contributions include rain-wind-induced cable vibration, wind-vehicle-bridge interaction, wind-induced vibration control, wind and structural health monitoring, fatigue analysis, reliability analysis, typhoon wind simulation, non-stationary and nonlinear buffeting response. Lastly, the theory is applied to the actual long-span cable-supported bridges. Structured in an easy-to-follow way, covering the topic from the fundamentals right through to the state-of-the-art Describes advanced topics such as wind and structural health monitoring and non-stationary and nonlinear buffeting response Gives a comprehensive description of various methods including CFD simulations of bridge and vehicle loading Uses two projects with which the author has worked extensively, Stonecutters cable-stayed bridge and Tsing Ma suspension bridge, as worked examples, giving readers a practical understanding

Long-Span Bridges and Aerodynamics by Toshio Miyata,Nobumitsu Fijisawa,Hitoshi Yamada Pdf

The completion of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge connecting the Japanese islands of Honshu and Shikoku is a milestone in the history of bridge engineering and wind-resistant design. With a main span of 1900 meters, it is the longest suspension bridge in the world. As the April 1998 inauguration of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge approached, the International Seminar on Long-Span Bridge Aerodynamics Perspective 8 was held in Kobe, Japan, where engineers and researchers from Japan and Europe met to discuss the next generation of long-span bridges and their aerodynamics. In the seminar's papers compiled in this volume, a major topic is long-span bridge projects, including perspectives from Europe and the East Asia, a discussion of high-strength, high-performance steels, and a look at the challenges of the future. A second major topic is structural and aerodynamic design, including technical details of the wind-resistant design of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge and other long-span bridges in the world.
