Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is a major concern for long-span bridge decks, which may
happen especially for closed-box girders under certain environmental wind conditions …

Energy-efficient, adaptive, affordable and durable curtain wall systems have always
attracted great interest among the scientific and technical communities. In this regard, the …

Wind-induced loads and motions of tall buildings usually govern the design of the lateral
load resisting systems. The outer shape of the building is one of the many parameters that …

Aerodynamic response of a standard tall building (commonly known as the CAARC model)
is investigated using LES. The LES employs the Consistent Discrete Random Flow …

Buffeting of long-span bridges caused by the wind turbulence could result in problems of
large deformation, fatigue, traffic safety and user comfort. The calculation of buffeting …

The bulk electricity that powers our society flows along high voltage transmission lines that
are conducting cables hung with insulators from a series of transmission towers. High winds …

Abstract Metaheuristic Optimization Techniques and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have
proven to be useful tools to find the best design solutions for different structural systems …

This study proposes a probabilistic performance evaluation framework for sea-crossing
cable-stayed bridges (SCBs) subjected to wind and wave excitations with the incorporation …

Despite significant advancements in computational technologies and methods, the
comprehensive assessment of the performance capacities and risk of structures built in …

This paper proposes a methodology for the rational assessment of lifetime costs on tall
buildings due to hurricane-induced damage along the US Atlantic coastline accounting for …
