Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...

The wind-induced response of structures has been a significant subject of engineering research over the past 40 years. Tall, slender buildings, chimneys, antenna towers, high-mast light standards, ...

Simulation of wind flows around the model of Austin’s 321 West 6th Street illustrates the E-SE wind direction that resulted in the largest cross-wind response on the 58-story high-rise. The hotter the ...
