| Abstract: | Predicted vortex induced response of circular cross-section reinforced concrete structures is compared with observed full-scale behaviour. On average the predictions agree to within 5% with observations but have a large scatter attributable to the model's failure to recognize the dependence of aerodynamic parameters on free stream turbulence. The high coefficient of variation of the model is, however, not markedly different from that associated with the prediction of drag loads. |
