Abstract
The aerodynamic and aeroelastic characteristics of a square supertall building and the surrounding wind field are numerically analyzed, accounting for the influence of the twisted wind field (TWF). A two-way coupled fluid-structure-interaction (FSI) simulation, validated by the aeroelastic experiments conducted in both TWF and conventional wind field (CWF), is employed to fulfill this purpose. This study focuses on the effect of TWF on the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) response of the building and associated aerodynamic forces acting on the aeroelastic model. The results indicate that the fluctuating forces on the tall building are reduced significantly when it is immersed in TWF compared to those in CWF. In TWF, the spectral energy of the across-wind force is dispersed over a wider frequency range than that in the CWF. Furthermore, the aeroelastic response of the building in the TWF is restricted at the upper range of the reduced wind velocity, attributed to the disordered and twisted wake flow near the building. The findings from the present study can enhance the understanding of the VIV behavior of super-tall buildings under the effect of twisted winds.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Fluids and Structures serves as a focal point and a forum for the exchange of ideas, for the many kinds of specialists and practitioners concerned with fluid–structure interactions and the dynamics of systems related thereto, in any field. One of its aims is to foster the cross–fertilization of ideas, methods and techniques in the various disciplines involved.
The journal publishes papers that present original and significant contributions on all aspects of the mechanical interactions between fluids and solids, regardless of scale.
