Historical view of long-span bridge aerodynamics

Some features of bridge aerodynamics of wind engineering are reviewed at this time, in view of the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and also to celebrate Professor Alan G. Davenportʹs 40 years of contribution to the field. Primary highlighted topics are: description of motion-dependent forces for flutter instability, presentation of gust responses caused by turbulent winds and suppression problems of wind-induced vibrations.
