Because of their stiffness lessened, these buildings become more susceptible to wind excitation. Especially for high-rise buildings in which the excessive responses are even interacted with the wind flow, the so-called aero-elasticity forms. Therefore, searching a possible solution to relieve the threat of wind hazard to high-rise buildings in Taiwan, where is even located in the typhoon-prone region, is inevitable and compulsory. According to the recent development in wind engineering, the researches on the across-wind effect, in particular the theoretical link with experimental data, are still remain challenging. It is well recognized that the resonance and lock-in effect in the across-wind motion of high-rise buildings should be mostly avoided, which initiate many building designs that mainly focus on the response before the lock-in stage. However, to better understand the behavior of across-wind resonance and lock-in, this study aimed at investigating its mechanism by adopting conceivable theoretical models to identify the aerodynamic parameters through wind tunnel tests (such as aerodynamic damping and stiffness), and developing an accurate method to predict the response of the high-rise building near lock-in as well. The data base of the aerodynamic parameters and the prediction model obtained can be used as useful guidance for the industrial applications. This project is scheduled to be completed in three years. The tasks in the 1st year (2010/8-2011/7, last year) is to identify the aerodynamic parameters of a series of 2-dimensional section models near lock-in based on our preliminary study on the theoretical model, analytical solution (called Scanlan model) and the corresponding identification scheme (which has been partially completed in 50 percent for now). Meanwhile, another theoretical model called generalized Van der Pol oscillator (GVPO) and its corresponding identification scheme will be also investigated. According to these results and experience, the tasks in the 2nd year (2011/8-2012/7, this year) is to derive the theoretical model, analytical solution and the corresponding identification scheme for the high-rise building gimbals models near lock-in, and perform the wind tunnel tests to identify the aerodynamic parameters for a series of 3-dimensional building models. Based on the results in the 1st and 2nd year, the mission in the 3rd year (2012/8-2013/7, next year) is devoted to develop an accurate method to predict the response of the high-rise buildings (called indirect prediction method) by using the modal analysis that will employ the aerodynamic parameters obtained from the 2-dimensional section models. The short term outcome of this study is to obtain the database of aerodynamic parameters near lock-in for the 2-dimensional section models and 3-dimensional high-rise building models. The long-term goal is to obtain an accurate method to predict the response of the high-rise building near lock-in by employing the aerodynamic parameters obtained from the 2-dimensional section models. It is expected that this successful outcome will be promisingly contributed to the wind engineering society.[[sponsorship]]行政院國家科學委員
