摘要

The paper presents the development of a simplified analytical modelAnalytical model for wind-induced overturning of high-sided vehicles on bridges and supporting wind tunnel testsWind tunnel test. It is found that vehicles are subject to increased overturning risk due to increased turbulenceTurbulence and vortex shedding developing in the wake region of the towers and that local wind screens can mitigate this effect.
