Windward & Leeward Forces: Bridge Design Secrets Revealed!
The structural integrity of long-span bridges, a core concern for organizations like the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), hinges significantly on accounting for aerodynamic effects. Proper analysis, often facilitated by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, ensures that wind loads are managed effectively. Windward and leeward foces bridges experience differential pressures; the windward side endures […]
