Forty Years of Computational Hydraulics—1960-2000
The definition of computational hydraulics as used herein is: the application of numerical methods for the solution of problems of hydraulic flows, largely as practiced by the civil engineering...
Flow Past Prosthetic Valves in a Model Human Aorta
Measurement of Spatially Averaged Fluctuating Loads Using Pneumatic Averaging
Changes in Bridge Deck Flutter Derivatives Caused by Turbulence
This paper discusses some of the results of a wind tunnel study that tested the aeroelastic stability of section models in smooth and gusting flow. Wind gusts several times longer than...
Damping in Tall Buildings: Its Variability and Treatment in Design
Increasingly, damping is being recognized as an important factor in the design of structures. It is at the same time a property which is relatively poorly defined, more acquired than engineered...
Aerodynamic Interference Effects on Wind Loads on Tall Buildings
The Structure of Trailing Vortices
Wind Effects on Compliant Offshore Structures
In recent years modern experimental and analytical techniques for estimating wind effects have increasingly been applied to compliant offshore structures. The six papers included in this...
Advancements in Aerodynamics, Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics
The theme of these Proceedings is Advancements in Aerodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydraulics. As indicated by the title, the subject crosses disciplinary boundaries and deals with flow...

Application of Penman Equation Wind Function
The Penman equation for computing evapotranspiration is frequently applied as the basis of irrigation system design. It has seen widespread application when sufficient data are available...
Tortional Vibration of Along-Wind Excited Structures
A method for analyzing the torsional vibration of along-wind excited structures is presented. The method is based on random vibration concepts and yields the expected maximum translational...
