Abstract

In order to study the influence of chamfered and rounded corners on vortex-induced vibration of super-tall buildings, a series of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF, in short) aeroelastic models were made, including chamfered-corner models with chamfer ratios of 0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5%, and 12.5%, and rounded-corner models with rounded ratios of 0%, 12.5%, 15%, and 17.5%. The crosswind displacement response of each aeroelastic model was measured by a laser displacement meter in a wind tunnel. The test results indicate that the crosswind displacement response is significantly reduced when the chamfer ratio increases to 5% or the rounded ratio increases to 12.5%; in particular, the vortex-induced vibration (VIV, in short) response can be reduced by more than 60%, which indicates that the chamfered corner and rounded corner play a good role in restraining the VIV of super high-rise buildings. When the reduced wind speed is small, the reduction of the crosswind response of chamfered and rounded models is mainly caused by the reduction of wind load; when the reduced wind speed approaches the VIV wind speed, the negative aerodynamic damping phenomenon of the model with a proper chamfer ratio and rounded ratio disappears, which shows that the VIV is suppressed not only because the cut corner reduces the wind load but also because the cut corner weakens the aeroelastic effect. Generally speaking, a chamfer ratio of about 7.5% and rounded ratio of about 15% can achieve a good reduction effect on the VIV of super high-rise buildings.
