| Abstract: |
This paper presents a framework that has been developed to allow fully interactive dynamic wind tunnel workshops to be held. These interactive sessions enable key structural performance indicators (e.g. peak dynamic wind base loads and wind-induced peak accelerations) to be derived within minutes of acquisition of wind tunnel data. Rapid modifications can be made to the geometry of the wind tunnel model as well as to the structural numerical model, allowing responsive re- testing within an interactive and integrated environment. This technical approach allows architects and structural engineers to generate finely tuned aerodynamic building envelopes capable of minimising the potentially adverse effects of vortex-induced vibrations. |
