As an indepth guide to understanding wind effects on cablesupported bridges, this book uses analytical, numerical and experimental methods to give readers a fundamental and practical understanding of the subject matter. It is structured to systemically move from introductory areas through to advanced topics currently being developed from research work. The author concludes with the application of the theory covered to realworld examples, enabling readers to apply their knowledge.The author provides background material, covering areas such as wind climate, cablesupported bridges, windinduced damage, and the history of bridge wind engineering. Wind characteristics in atmospheric boundary layer, mean wind load and aerostatic instability, windinduced vibration and aerodynamic instability, and wind tunnel testing are then described as the fundamentals of the subject. Stateoftheart contributions include rainwindinduced cable vibration, windvehiclebridge interaction, windinduced vibration control, wind and structural health monitoring, fatigue analysis, reliability analysis, typhoon wind simulation, nonstationary and nonlinear buffeting response. Lastly, the theory is applied to the actual longspan cablesupported bridges.Structured in an easytofollow way, covering the topic from the fundamentals right through to the stateoftheart Describes advanced topics such as wind and structural health monitoring and nonstationary and nonlinear buffeting response Gives a comprehensive description of various methods including CFD simulations of bridge and vehicle loading Uses two projects with which the author has worked extensively, Stonecutters cablestayed bridge and Tsing Ma suspension bridge, as worked examples, giving readers a practical understanding
