Experimental study about galloping phenomenon in square cylinder

Consulta en la Biblioteca ETSI Industriales (Riunet)

[EN] The main aim of this thesis is to study the behaviour of a square cylinder and its galloping instability. With the test in the wind tunnel, the intention is to compare the real behaviour with the theoretical one. But also it is interesting to compare the results with the literature and try to analyze how the different analysis of the data obtained with experiments can affect the expected response. Also, to analyze of the methodology provided in the Eurocode is adequate and if the results obtained are valid according to the experiments. It is also interest to compare the behaviour under different conditions and if the numerical method can solve properly this phenomenon.
