Wind Effects on Bridge Deck: A Computational Fluid Dynamics Study
Abstract: The interaction between wind and bridge structures has significant implications for their design, stability, and safety. This dissertation presents a comprehensive study of the effects of wind on bridge decks using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. This research aims to analyze the aerodynamic behaviour of a typical bridge deck under various wind conditions and assess its structural response. The study begins with a detailed literature review that explores the historical development of bridge aerodynamics and the significance of wind-induced effects on bridge design. The simulation data provide insights into potential vibration modes, stress concentrations, and areas of concern for the integrity of the bridge. This research contributes to the development of more resilient and stable bridge designs.
