Hybrid simulation method for building structures subject to wind load

拟议研究的主要目标是开发一种模拟方法，其中高层建筑的物理比例模型将在风洞测试设备中进行测试。比例模型的灵活性和能量耗散机制将被**表示为计算机模型。计算机模型和物理模型将通过**传感器反馈和电动执行器的控制进行实时交互。这种模拟方法的发展预计将大大简化**测试模型的准备和模型参数(如刚度和阻尼比)的校准，因为这些参数将进行**数值建模。该研究项目旨在大幅降低行业合作伙伴的测试成本(机器时间和工程时间)**，这将为进一步的风洞测试提供机会。

The main objective of the proposed research is to develop a simulation method in which a physical scaled model of a high-rise**building will be tested in a wind tunnel testing facility. The flexibility and energy dissipation mechanism of the scaled model will be**represented as a computer model. The computer model and the physical model will interact with each other in real time through**sensors feedback and control of an electric actuator. The development of the simulation method is expected to greatly simplify**testing model preparation and calibration of model parameters such as stiffness and damping ratio, because these will be**modelled numerically. The research project is aimed at substantially reducing the testing cost (machine time and engineering time)**of the industry partner, which will allow further wind tunnel testing opportunities.
