Field Tests and Wind Tunnel Tests on Aerodynamic Characteristics of Train/Vehicles under Crosswinds

Last updated on 21 April 2016 3:20
Natural winds are turbulent flows and boundary layers exist near the surface of the actual ground, so that there is a possibility that the aerodynamic forces acting on train/vehicles from natural winds differ from uniform flows. Accordingly, full-scale models of a train/vehicle and a viaduct were constructed in a windy...
