Investigation of Wind-Loads Acting on Low-Aspect-Ratio Cylindrical Structures Based on a Wind Tunnel Test

The low-aspect-ratio cylindrical structures represented by oil tanks is a kind of wind sensitive structure, which is prone to buckling under wind-loads. A wind tunnel test was conducted to investigate the properties of wind-loads acting on smooth cylinders with an aspect ratio <i>AR</i>...
