Experimental and Computational Studies on the Performance of Solar Trackers Under Vortex Shedding, Torsional Divergence, and Flutter
Quintela Suárez, Juan; Jurado, José Ángel; Rapela Ponte, Carlos; Álvarez Naveira, Antonio José; Roca Rodríguez, Miguel; Hernández, Santiago; Cid Montoya, Miguel; López Rodríguez, Juan María; Ruiz Moreno, Antonio Jesús; Moreno Echarri, Itxaso; Jiménez Romero, Sergio (WIT Press, 2020)[Abstract] The current development of renewable energies has originated a number of new structural typologies that are the physical support of the energy production systems. Photovoltaic energy is a very mature source and ... -
Inclusion of Mechanical Dampers in the Multimodal Flutter Analysis of Slender Structures
Quintela Suárez, Juan; Jurado, José Ángel; Rapela Ponte, Carlos; Álvarez Naveira, Antonio José; Hernández, Santiago (WIT Press, 2020)[Abstract] Sometimes slender structures are reinforced with mechanical dampers to reduce the vibrations caused by aeroelastic phenomena like flutter. However the formulation of flutter analysis only considers the classical ... -
Wind tunnel study on the effect of the gap width in the aerodynamic and aeroelastic responses of twin-box decks
Nieto Mouronte, Félix; Cid Montoya, Miguel; Fontán, Arturo; Hernández, Santiago; Rapela Ponte, Carlos; Álvarez Naveira, Antonio José; Jurado, José Ángel; Casteleiro Pena, Alejandro; García, Verónica (WIT Press, 2018)[Abstract:] Twin-box decks have recently been introduced in long-span bridges because this type of slotted cross-section provides flutter critical wind speeds higher than mono-box streamlined decks for flexible structures. ...
