This paper examines the extreme gust profiles obtained by conditionally sampling full-scale velocity data obtained in the lower part of the atmospheric boundary layer. It is demonstrated that three different types of behaviour can be observed in the streamwise component of velocity. In all cases the corresponding vertical velocity component illustrates similar behaviour. An idealised horseshoe vortex model and a downburst model are investigated to examine if such structures can explain the behaviour observed. In addition, an empirical model is developed for an isolated gust corresponding to each of the three types of behaviour observed. It is possible that the division of the gust profile into three different types may lead to an improvement in the correlation of extreme gust events with respect to type.

The dynamic behavior of high speed train is very important because it should be safe and is satisfied with the ride comfort of passengers. The railway is composed of many suspension components-1st springs, 1st dampers, 2nd springs, 2nd dampers etc- that have an influence on the dynamic characteristics of high speed train. Also, the wheel/rail shapes, the track condition and geometry and many environmental factors-rain, snow, wind etc-are affected the dynamic behavior of high speed train. This paper is reviewed the effect of wind(gust) on the dynamic behavior of high speed train. Vampire program is used for this simulation. The result of simulation shows that high speed train should not be operated when the gust speed is beyond 34.5m/sec.

Measurements of wind flow and pressure fluctuations induced by train passing on station platform have been conducted. Test conventional trains have a different nose shapes - bluff nose and wedged nose. The bluff nose train influence peak value of pressure fluctuations on station platform three times more than the wedged nose train for train speed of 108 km/h. Also, air flow induced by the bluff nose train passing is three times more than the wedged nose train passing. Current study shows that the gust induced by the bluff nose conventional train may threaten a passenger's safety on station platform in proximity to train passage.

The ballast-flying, induced by strong underbody train gust, may damage train underbody, wheel and even cause the safety problems. For this reason, a heighter is being used to prevent the ballast-flying phenomenon through underbody now reduction. In this research, flow field around a heighter is numerically simulated. And the parametric study of various heighter shapes is performed to find out more effective heighter shape. Also the ballast-flying probabilities are calculated for various ballast types and train speeds.

A series of filed tests have been performed to investigate the aerodynamic effects on platform of the railway station during the passage of train that can be unpleasant and even dangerous to the pedestrians. To assess the aerodynamic effects on the platform, two aerodynamic properties has been measured; one is the wind gust induced by the train and the other is the pressure pulses generated when the nose and the tail of train passes. To measure these aerodynamic properties during the train passage, an array of hot-wire type anemometers and several sets of pressure transducers have been used, respectively. This paper deals with the filed test on conventional railway at about 100km/h operational speed, in which total 34 measurements has been made at the Bugok station in Seoul-Busan line for Saemaul-ho and Mugungwha-ho train. The results showed dramatic differences in the aerodynamic features between the two trains that are supposed to originate from the contrasting nose shapes of the trains.

차륜이나 기타 궤도주변의 구조물에 동에 충돌하여 유험을 초래할 수 있는 자갈비산 현상은 고속으로 달리는 열차의 하부에 유도되는 돌풍에 의해 발생 가능하다. 자갈비산을 방진하기 위한 방법 하나로 선로상의 자갈표면 유속을 감소시키는 높임침목이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 높임침목의 형상에 대하여 전산해석을 이용하여 그 공력특성을 분석하였다. 높임침목의 높이가 높아질수록 유도되는 유속은 감소하였으며 폭의 변화는 큰 영향이 없음을 확인하였다. 또한 높임침목의 형상 변화에 따라 자갈궤도면에 유도되는 유속을 검토하여 유동방향에 대하여 뾰족하고 각진 높임침목 형상이 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

An evaluation and comparison of seven of the world's major building codes and standards is conducted in this study, with specific discussion of their estimations of the alongwind, acrosswind, and torsional response, where applicable, for a given building. The codes and standards highlighted by this study are those of the United States, Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, China and Europe. In addition, the responses predicted by using the measured power spectra of the alongwind, acrosswind and torsional responses for several building shapes tested in a wind tunnel are presented and a comparison between the response predicted by wind tunnel data and that estimated by some of the standards is conducted. This study serves not only as a comparison of the response estimates by international codes and standards, but also introduces a new set of wind tunnel data for validation of wind tunnel-based empirical expressions.

This paper presents a rational polynomial approximation method to estimate modal parameters of wind excited structures using incomplete noisy measurements of structural responses and partial measurements of wind velocities only. A stochastic model of the excitation wind force acting on the structure is estimated from partial measurements of wind velocities. Then the transfer functions of the structure are approximated as rational polynomial functions. From the poles and zeros of the estimated rational polynomial functions, the modal parameters, such as natural frequencies, damping ratios, and mode shapes are extracted. Since the frequency characteristics of wind forces acting on structures can be assumed as a smooth Gaussian process especially around the natural frequencies of the structures according to the central limit theorem (Brillinger, 1969; Yaglom, 1987), the estimated modal parameters are robust and reliable with respect to the assumed stochastic input models. To verify the proposed method, the modal parameters of a TV transmission tower excited by gust wind are estimated. Comparison study with the results of other researchers shows the efficacy of the suggested method.

The objective of the present work is to develop a time-domain numerical method of broadband noise in a cascade of airfoils. This paper focuses on dipole broadband noise sources, resulting from the interaction of turbulent inflows with the flat-plate airfoil cascade. The turbulence response of a two-dimensional cascade is studied by solving both of the linearised and full nonlinear Euler equations employing accurate higher order spatial differencing, time stepping techniques and non-reflecting inflow/outflow boundary condition. The time-domain result using the linearised Euler equations shows good agreement with the analytical solution using the modified LINSUB code. Through the comparison of the nonlinear time-domain result using the full nonlinear Euler equations with the linear, it is found that the acoustic mode amplitude of the nonlinear response is less than that of the linear response due to the energy cascade from low frequency components to the high frequency ones. Considering the merits of the time-domain methods over the typical time-linearised frequency-domain analysis, the current method is expected to be promising tools for analyzing the effects of the airfoil shapes, non-uniform background flow, linear-nonliear regimes on the broadband noise due to gust-cascade interaction.
