Punching shear strength and behaviour of compact reinforced concrete footings

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, João Tiago Ramos Bernardo de Santa Rita Simões

concrete footings with and without transverse reinforcement. Even though that punching shear failures have already been deeply investigated, there is still scanty experimental information on full-scale reinforced concrete footings failing in punching shear ...

A new ring‐shaped wind tunnel facility to study wind‐packing of snow

Michael Lehning, Charles Fierz, Christian Gabriel Sommer

A new wind tunnel was designed and built at SLF. The facility is ring-shaped to simulate an infinite fetch. This is important for experiments where the observed processes have a slow time scale (minutes to hours). The wind tunnel was developed to study the ...

Intercomparison of Terrain-Following Coordinate Transformation and Immersed Boundary Methods for Large-Eddy Simulation of Wind Fields over Complex Terrain

Fernando Porté Agel, Jiannong Fang

Accurate modeling of complex terrain, especially steep terrain, in the simulation of wind fields remains a challenge. It is well known that the terrain-following coordinate transformation method (TFCT) generally used in atmospheric flow simulations is rest ...

Data-driven RANS for simulations of large wind farms

Giacomo Valerio Iungo, Francesco Viola

In the wind energy industry there is a growing need for real-time predictions of wind turbine wake flows in order to optimize power plant control and inhibit detrimental wake interactions. To this aim, a data-driven RANS approach is proposed in order to ac ...

Wind-tunnel study of the wake behind a vertical axis wind turbine in a boundary layer flow using stereoscopic particle image velocimetry

Fernando Porté Agel, Vincent François-Charles Rolin

Stereo particle image velocimetry is used in a wind-tunnel to study boundary layer effects in the wake behind a vertical axis wind turbine. The turbine is a three-bladed giromill with a solidity of 1.18. The wake is studied for a tip speed ratio of 2 and a ...
