Some aerodynamic results about the effect of moving train on the aerodynamics of train-
bridge system in crosswinds are introduced using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) …

The performance of bridges under strong wind and traffic is of great importance to set the
traveling speed limit or to make operational decisions for severe weather, such as …

This article presents a study on the train stability against crosswinds simulated with different
wind models. The work focuses on the evaluation of derailment indexes, which are …

Bridge-tunnel section is the connecting section between bridges and tunnels, where strong
crosswind is considered as one of the most important causes of traffic accidents, in particular …

In this paper, a numerical study regarding the influence of the wind speed and orientation on
the train running safety against crosswinds is presented. The wind profiles are defined …

The aerodynamic characteristics of a train on a bridge under crosswinds are studied by
using a wind tunnel. The tests performed measure the aerodynamic forces associated with …

The consideration of train-bridge system under winds has been attracted extensive
attentions, but the winds are typically treated as stationary. This stationary assumption …

The evaluation of the sheltering efficiency of wind barriers is directly related to the safety of
vehicles under crosswind. A series of work has been carried out in order to optimize the …

Accidents, such as deflections, side slips, and even rolls, can easily occur when road
vehicles moving on the bridge deck at high speed are subjected to sudden changes owing …

Wind barriers are nowadays commonly placed on bridges to protect vehicles from adverse
cross-wind effects. In addition to this beneficial influence, wind barriers may adversely affect …
