Aeroelastic Testing of Span-Wire Traffic Signal Systems

Autor: Ziad Azzi, Manuel Matus, Amal Elawady, Ioannis Zisis, Peter Irwin, Arindam Gan Chowdhury

Publikováno v: Frontiers in Built Environment, Vol 6 (2020)

Span-wire traffic signals are vulnerable to extreme wind events such as hurricanes and thunderstorms. In past events in the Southeastern Coast of the United States, many failures of span-wire traffic signals were reported. In order to identify their

Aerodynamic Mitigation of Wind Uplift on Low-Rise Building Roof Using Large-Scale Testing

Autor: Ziad Azzi, Filmon Habte, Amal Elawady, Arindam Gan Chowdhury, Mohammadtaghi Moravej

Publikováno v: Frontiers in Built Environment, Vol 5 (2020)

During strong wind events such as hurricanes and thunderstorms, building roofs are subjected to high wind uplift forces (suctions), which often lead to severe roofing component damage and possibly, water intrusion. It is therefore crucial to accurate
