ROBUSTNESS EVALUATION OF AERODYNAMIC FLUTTER STABILITY AND AEROSTATIC TORSIONAL STABILITY OF LONG-SPAN SUSPENSION BRIDGES

Robustness Evaluation of Aerodynamic Flutter Stability and Aerostatic Torsional Stability of Long-Span Suspension Bridges

Structural robustness is defined by the international engineering community as the capabilities of structural systems that enable them to survive unforeseen or unusual circumstances.In order to highlight the unforeseen and unusual characteristics of wind hazards, this study introduces the concept of structural robustness into the wind-resistant des

Wave generation in an OWC system for wave energy conversion

This paper aims to present an overview on the wavemakers used to generate waves inside a numerical wave tank taking into consideration the biphasic air-water aspect of the incident wave.Wave markers are used to simulate the flow dynamic behaviour in the Oscillating Water Column Collections (OWC) for wave energy conversion.Three kinds of these syste
