Abstract

This paper presents the results from a program of wind tunnel study on the galloping effect of an inclined square cylinder. A single-degree-freedom model simulating the vibration of a slender structure in the transverse direction was designed and fabricated. A series of wind tunnel tests were conducted to study the galloping effect of the structure. The flow conditions being considered in this study was uniform smooth flow. A mathematical model simulating the vibration of a slender structure in the transverse direction under uniform smooth flow condition was developed in conjunction with the measured wind tunnel test data. It was found that inclination angle is an influencing factor affecting the response of structure.
