[HTML][HTML] Wind deflection analysis of railway catenary under crosswind based on nonlinear finite element model and wind tunnel test

Y Song, M Zhang, O Øiseth, A Rønnquist - Mechanism and Machine Theory, 2022 - Elsevier
This paper evaluates the railway catenary's wind deflection under crosswind based on wind
tunnel experiments and a nonlinear finite element model. A catenary model is constructed …

Generalizing Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (1954) for complex atmospheric turbulence

I Stiperski, M Calaf - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (MOST) forms the basis for parametrizations of turbulent
exchange in virtually all numerical models of atmospheric flows. Yet, its limitations to flat and …

On the measurement of turbulence over complex mountainous terrain

I Stiperski, MW Rotach - Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 2016 - Springer
The theoretical treatment of turbulence is largely based on the assumption of horizontally
homogeneous and flat underlying surfaces. Correspondingly, approaches developed over …

Dependence of near‐surface similarity scaling on the anisotropy of atmospheric turbulence

I Stiperski, M Calaf - Quarterly Journal of the Royal …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Turbulence data from the CASES‐99 field experiment, over comparatively horizontally
homogeneous and flat terrain, are separated based on the anisotropy of the Reynolds stress …

[HTML][HTML] Analysis of the influence of the wind speed profile on wind power production

CA Lopez-Villalobos, O Martinez-Alvarado… - Energy Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
The characterization of wind speed and its variability at a site is important for wind resource
assessment. The most readily available wind measurements are at 10 m above ground …

Scaling, anisotropy, and complexity in near‐surface atmospheric turbulence

I Stiperski, M Calaf, MW Rotach - Journal of Geophysical …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The development of a unified similarity scaling has so far failed over complex surfaces, as
scaling studies show large deviations from the empirical formulations developed over flat …

Highly variable aerodynamic roughness length (z0) for a hummocky debris‐covered glacier

ES Miles, JF Steiner, F Brun - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
The aerodynamic roughness length (z0) is an essential parameter in surface energy
balance studies, but few literature values exist for debris‐covered glaciers. We use …

Similarity scaling over a steep alpine slope

DF Nadeau, ER Pardyjak, CW Higgins… - Boundary-layer …, 2013 - Springer
In this study, we investigate the validity of similarity scaling over a steep mountain slope (30–
41^ ∘). The results are based on eddy-covariance data collected during the Slope …

Integral turbulence statistics over a central European city centre

K Fortuniak, W Pawlak, M Siedlecki - Boundary-layer meteorology, 2013 - Springer
Abstract Atmospheric measurements over 5 years (2005–2010) at two sites in Łódź, central
Poland have been analyzed to develop a better understanding of turbulence in urban areas …
