The Influence of Chamfered and Rounded Corners on Vortex-Induced Vibration of Super-Tall Buildings
Published 2023-01-01“…The crosswind displacement response of each aeroelastic model was measured by a laser displacement meter in a wind tunnel. The test results indicate that the crosswind displacement response is significantly reduced when the chamfer ratio increases to 5% or the rounded ratio increases to 12.5%; in particular, the vortex-induced vibration (VIV, in short) response can be reduced by more than 60%, which indicates that the chamfered corner and rounded corner play a good role in restraining the VIV of super high-rise buildings. …”

An Investigation of Aerodynamic Effects of Body Morphing for Passenger Cars in Close-Proximity
Published 2021-02-01“…A new reference car, the Resnick model, was specially designed to include front and rear-end add-on sections to make distinct changes in profile form and simulate large-scale body morphing. The results of wind tunnel tests on small-scale models suggested that current trends in low-drag styling may not provide the ideal shape for platoon constituent members and that optimised forms are likely to be dependent upon position in the platoon.…”

Entrainment phenomenon by forced displacement excitation in vortex induced vibration
Published 2020-09-01“…By the experiment using wind tunnel and the numerical analysis using shooting method and ordinally numerical integration, following was made clear: (1) Entrainment phenomenon was confirmed in the excitation frequency region including the natural frequency . (2) There is the case that the entrainment region is wider at the higher wind speed than at the wind speed with the largest amplitude by vortex excitation. (3) Regarding the resonance amplitude in entrainment region, there is the case that its amplitude is slightly larger at the higher wind speed than that at the wind speed when the amplitude by the vortex excitation is the largest. (4) The largest vibration amplitude at entrainment is a value almost close to the sum of the largest amplitude at the time of only the vortex excitation and that at the time of only the forced displacement excitation. (5) The experimental results and the numerical analysis results mentioned above were almost qualitatively consistent.…”
