Overview

Analysis of wind patterns in long-span bridge decks with various wind barriers, indicating performance differences.

Key Points

  • Wind velocity increases with flow angle in barrier gaps, highlighting the importance of relative orientations.
  • C-shaped wind barriers outperform elliptical and rectangular types, indicating design priorities for bridges.
  • Turbulence intensity varies by region, with barriers increasing turbulence in non-tower areas but reducing it in tower zones.
  • The proposed evaluation index R effectively quantifies wind-shielding performances of different barrier designs.
